Paint prices will eventually go up because of a new law aimed at promoting recycling. The law, parts of which took effect last week, tacks on a fee for household paint purchases. The fee will go toward the creation of a paint recycling drop-off program. State Sen. Linda Newell, D-Littleton, who backed the legislation that led to the law, said she hopes the program will have a positive environmental impact. “It is the highest volume product that is not recycled,” Newell said of used paint cans. “It either ends up in landfills with paint inside cans or it ends up sitting in people’s basements, or it ends up in the water stream.” The drop-off centers will be located at home improvement and hardware stores, where cans can be recycled at no cost. “Retailers themselves don’t have to do this,” Newell said, “but the majority will want to be a retail recycling site because it drives traffic to their stores.” The process of creating the program

School tip line now under state control New laws include change for violence reporting system By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com The reorganization of a school violence hotline was among a handful of new safety laws that took effect last week. The Safe2Tell Act moves an existing anonymous tip line from the nonprofit sector to a state-run program that is operated through the Department of Law. The program was set to shut down due to a lack of funding before the Legislature unanimously passed a bill earlier this year that transfers its control to the state. The hotline was set up after the 1999 Columbine High School shootings as a way for students to provide anonymous reports of potential campus threats. The state claims that since its implementation, the hotline has prevented some school attacks and sui-

cides and has led to intervention in more than 2,000 bullying instances. “Students are often the first to hear threats against a school, or to see bullying or drug use, so they play a critical role in preventing these problems,” state Senate President Morgan Carroll, D-Aurora, a bill sponsor, said through an emailed statement. “Safe2Tell empowers students to break the silence in an anonymous, proactive way so that kids can focus on learning while at school.” Also taking effect last week was a separate public safety effort that imposes new penalties on businesses that sell designer drugs. The law subjects vendors who sell synthetic marijuana, often called “spice,” to civil liability. Synthetic drugs have been known to be more dangerous than marijuana and have resulted in some deaths. “Despite their growing popularity, synthetic drugs are incredibly dangerous and this new law is a crucial step in taking action against these harmful substances,” state Rep. Lois Landgraf, R-Fountain, a bill sponsor, said

Talk puts fracking front and center Hickenlooper says panel seeking compromise will be his responsibility By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Gov. John Hickenlooper said last week that he will be the one who selects the members of a task force that will be charged with finding a compromise on issues surrounding hydraulic fracturing. The governor also addressed concerns on the part of Republicans that the commission’s work could result in more regulations on the oil and gas industry. Hickenlooper talked about fracking during an Aug. 8 roundtable event with several business leaders at the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce in Centennial, as well as during an interview with Colorado Community Media afterward. The governor said his administration hasn’t quite figured out how the 18-member commission will be selected or how it will ultimately operate. But the governor put aside any question as to who will put the task force together. “People ask me, ‘Who’s gonna pick ‘em?’ I am,” Hickenlooper said. “The buck stops here, and I guarantee you we’re going to have everybody pissed off again. The one criteria is that everyone who is going to be on that list is someone who believes we can get to a yes (on a compromise).” The task force was born out of a deal the governor reached with Democratic U.S. Rep. Jared Polis earlier in the week that will keep anti-fracking initiatives that Polis was backing from appearing on the November ballot. The measures would have required greater distances between wells and occupied structures and would have given communities more control over fracking — the process in which water and chemicals are blasted into the ground to free up trapped oil and gas.
Remarks in spotlight
Hickenlooper and the oil and gas indus-
try were fearful that the initiatives would essentially ban fracking in Colorado and cripple the state’s economy. Instead of the voters, it will be the task force that will take up those issues and that will provide recommendations for potential legislation to the General Assembly. But Republican lawmakers are already feeling uneasy about the commission. And their concerns were heightened following comments Hickenlooper made during an energy summit in Denver earlier in the week. According to the Associated Press, Hickenlooper said the task force’s “success is dependent upon it ending in regulation.” That comment didn’t sit well with House Minority Leader Brian DelGrosso, R-Loveland. “We should go into it from the premise that the commission take a look at whether we actually need regulations,” DelGrosso said in an interview prior to the governor’s Chamber of Commerce event. “He’s starting with the premise that it’s going to be set up to regulate.” Hickenlooper, in an interview with Colorado Community Media, insisted that’s not what he said, even though he made his comments in front of a group of reporters. “What I said was legislation,” the governor said. “Go back and look at the quotes. I never said we needed more regulation. Now, we might. Again, this is the whole point of getting people from all the different viewpoints in the same room and letting them have a discussion in such a way to try to figure out: `Is there a compromise here?’” Hickenlooper said he would like to see the task force’s effort result in some kind of legislation, even if it’s merely “taking existing regulation and codifying it.” “Unless we get it into legislation, I mean we would have made progress, even if we just discuss it we will have made progress,” he said during the interview. “But I think that the best success will be if we get to some level of legislation.” Hickenlooper said the commission will have a “narrow focus,” one that he hopes will result in work getting done in a timely manner.

Gov. John Hickenlooper speaks during an Aug. 8 round table discussion with business leaders at the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce in Centennial. Photo by Vic Vela “We’re not going to be out there talking about air quality; we’re not going to be out there talking about water quality,” he said. “We’re really going to look into surface use issues, a very narrow set of issues to talk about.”
From 48 to 18
The governor said there were different opinions among his staff regarding the makeup of the commission, including an initial suggestion that the task force have 48 members. The governor believes that an 18-member commission will have the appropriate balance of interests being considered. “The idea is there’s six spots for the oil and gas industry, but that would include pro-industry sides like home builders and agricultural interests,” he said during the roundtable forum. “There should be six from the local control and the environmental side of things ... And then six civic leaders who as far as we can tell are not on the record one way or the other, who are what the Quakers call a fair witness.” The governor acknowledges that there are logistics that still need to be figured out.
“We still have a lot to work through,” he said. “You know, (such as) if you want a representative from agriculture, is it from the Cattlemen’s Association or the wheat growers?” State Rep. Max Tyler, D-Lakewood, the chairman of the House Transportation and Energy Committee who crafted several pieces of energy-related legislation, said he is hopeful that the task force will result in legislation that is needed to tackle this “really thorny problem.” “We need to make sure that everybody has a voice,” Tyler said in a phone interview. “Ballot initiatives are a huge sledgehammer and you never know what the consequences are going to be and you can’t make changes. And that’s not good policy.” But DelGrosso said he doesn’t know “if you’ll actually see legislation come out of the commission.” And, when asked how a battle over fracking would rank on the list of other controversial measures taken up by the General Assembly in recent years, DelGrosso said, “Extremely high.” “The reality is the economic impact that the oil and gas industry has in Colorado is tremendous,” DelGrosso said.

Baskets of wonder IF YOU GO
Spirits in the Wind hosts Hosig Di show
WHAT: HOSIG Di show
By Clarke Reader
1211 WASHINGTON Ave., Golden
WHERE: SPIRITS in the Wind Gallery
creader @coloradocommunitymedia.com
WHEN: AUG. 16-17 10 A.M. - 6 p.m.
Native American art taps into the nexus of both function and beauty with many of its creations, and the Hosig Di baskets scheduled for display at the Spirits in the Wind Gallery perfectly embody this spirit. During the Golden Fine Arts Festival, Aug. 16-17), the gallery, 1211 Washington Ave., will not only play host to the Hosig Di (finest baskets) works of Richard L. Fitzgerald but will feature Jennifer Kuyper, a rain forest basket specialist, who will explain the making of the baskets and the artists. “I met Jennifer and just fell in love with these baskets and their style,” said Pam Eggemeyer, owner of the gallery. “They are something that no one has really seen in the area before.” The baskets were first made by members of the Wounaan people of Panama but the modern versions have tapped into contemporary styles. The baskets are made as a result of weaving traditions that have been kept alive for generations and are prized because of their intricacy and designs.

Eggemeyer said the baskets can take anywhere from several months to years to complete and make expert use of vegetable dyes to create vibrant colors. Fitzgerald said that in recognizing the unparalleled value of the artistry of the remote region, he works exclusively with master weavers from the Wounaan and Emberá tribes in a traditional, working patron relationship. By bringing global attention to this otherwise distant community, he is able to promote their work, and as a result, offer stability and growth to those who have excelled in their craft. “The end result is not the typical basket that people might expect,” she said. “The show will be like a trunk show and give people a nice array of options to look at.” Fitzgerald has spent his life in southwestern Colorado surrounded by the Ana-

“Why Isn’t My Home Selling?” Consider Your Selection of Listing Agent By JIM SMITH, Realtor ® Every now and then I get a call from a disappointed seller who thought his or her home would sell quickly in our “seller’s market” but for some reason it isn’t selling. How can that be? This happened twice last week, and one of them was almost a parody of a common mistake sellers make: hiring a relative who is in real estate. This is not to say that being a relative is a bad thing. Your relative may indeed have your best interest at heart (which every agent should for his client, by the way), is your relative among the 10% of agents doing 90% of the transactions or among the 50% of all agents who haven’t closed a single transaction in the past 12 months? If the latter, then making blood relationship your sole criterion for selection might not work in your favor. That seller who asked me why his home wasn’t selling had selected a relative who hasn’t had a
successful transaction in the past three years. She had only two prior listings, and both expired without selling. As a buyer’s agent, she has never had a closing either. Clearly, if this particular agent had not been a relative, this seller might not have considered her, or at least would have asked more qualifying questions before signing a listing agreement. Was this agent a Realtor — that is, a member of a Realtor association? He assumed she was, but she is in fact a non-Realtor, and for good reason. With no income, she probably can’t afford the $500/year dues. This is not to say that only members of a Realtor association can be successful, but it’s likely such an agent scrimps on marketing, too. In this business, one’s level of expertise is directly related to how many transactions you do and not how long you’ve been licensed... Read the rest of this column online at www.JimSmithBlog.com

Mental-health actions raise racial questions Seclusion, restraint seen as ‘treatment failure’ By Kristin Jones
Rocky Mountain PBS I-News In 2010, a man named Troy Geske died at the Colorado Mental Health Institute at Pueblo after being wrestled by staff members onto a bed, where he was restrained with straps and left by himself, face down. He asphyxiated. Geske’s death resulted in the state’s paying a $775,000 settlement to his family and a ban on the use of prone restraint in state hospitals. The tragedy also accelerated a concerted effort in Colorado to limit the use of seclusion and restraint for people receiving mental-health
treatment. Seclusion, or confining a person alone in a room, and restraint, or physically preventing a person’s movement, have long been common tools for controlling people in a mental-health crisis — particularly when violence is a risk. But state health officials regard the procedures as a “treatment failure,” in which risks include “serious injury or death, re-traumatization of people who have a history of trauma, and loss of dignity and other psychological harm.” Hospitals, clinics and mental health centers — including both state-funded and private-sector institutions — reported 12 percent fewer instances of seclusion and restraint in fiscal year 2013 than two years earlier. Still, the state’s latest report on the use of
these and other mental-health procedures, released May 23, shows that minorities are more likely to be put into these punishing conditions than whites. The data shows: African-Americans make up 11 percent of the 1,498 Coloradans secluded or restrained in hospitals and other mental-health settings last year, according to the annual report by the state’s Department of Human Services. By comparison, only around 4 percent of the total population in the state is black, according to the latest available census data from 2012, while about 8 percent of the instances of mandated mental-health treatment — including 72-hour holds, certifications, seclusion, restraint and involuntary medication — in fiscal-year 2013 involved black patients. Whites show up more or less proportion-
ally in mandated mental-health treatment. They make up around 70 percent of the state’s population, and were involved in 69 percent of the instances of mental-health treatment last year. However, white patients made up only 53 percent of those put into seclusion and restraint.
Access to care dubious
Hispanics are under-represented in mandated mental-health treatment, raising questions about Latinos’ access to care. Hispanics make up 21 percent of the state’s population, but were involved in only 13 percent of the instances of mandated treatment. I-News continues on Page 5

I-News Continued from Page 4
Like blacks, Hispanics are more likely to be subject to the most punitive conditions while in care. About 30 percent of the people put into seclusion and restraint last year were Hispanic. A series of investigations into the state’s behavioral health-care system by Rocky Mountain PBS I-News, “Untreated: How Ignoring Mental Illness Costs Us All,” has found that for many people with mental illnesses, help is hard to find. While demand for psychiatric services has increased significantly in recent years, the supply of inpatient services has dropped, straining the remaining hospitals and clinics that do provide these services. Health officials at the Colorado Department of Human Services say they haven’t examined the apparent racial disparity in the use of punitive measures like seclusion and
restraint. Patrick Fox, an official with the department, says he has no insight into why AfricanAmericans may be disproportionately subject to the harsh procedures, and the issue hadn’t previously been brought to his attention. But he said that given documented differences in the treatment of minorities in the criminal justice system — where blacks are arrested in disproportionate numbers and given longer sentences — discrepancies in mentalhealth treatment are “not surprising.” Recent records of incidents of violence and alleged abuse at the state mental health institutes at Fort Logan and Pueblo show that seclusion and restraint are still used as tools to control patients who are perceived as a risk to others. At times, residents complain that the measures cause injuries. In December, for instance, a teen patient at Fort Logan was put into four-point restraints after trying to kick and grab staff while experiencing delusions of needing surgery, according to the hospital’s report. He later complained of feeling numbness in his hands from the restraints — allegations that the hospital said it wasn’t able to substantiate. The state health department investigated and agreed with the institute.
Case spurred resignation In a separate instance in May 2013, a female patient in her 30s said she knocked for 15 minutes at the window of the room where she was held in seclusion, needing to use the bathroom. Nobody came, and she urinated on the floor.
“I’m used to being in seclusion,” she told investigators later. “But that’s not right that I had to pee on the floor.” One nurse resigned and another was disciplined as a result of the hospital’s investigation. Mark Silverstein, legal director at the Colorado chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, says the practices — and the potential for racial bias — deserve a close look. “Seclusion and restraint are some of the most serious deprivations of liberty that there are in an institutional setting, so there’s certainly a risk of abuse, and there’s a history of abuse,” says Silverstein. A lack of funding for research into racial disparities in the behavioral health-care arena in Colorado hampers efforts to address the problems, says Julie Reiskin, executive director of the Colorado Cross-Disability Coalition, which advocates on behalf of people with disabilities. Reiskin says her organization often hears concerns from people of color that they or their family members are ignored, refused treatment or funneled into jails and prisons when they seek help for mental illness. Marlene Murillo, an executive assistant at the coalition, is one of them. Murillo, who is Hispanic, says efforts to find help for her 31-year-old son — who is schizophrenic, has substance abuse problems, and refuses treatment — have more often resulted in his being jailed than hospitalized. Reiskin says others report they’re treated more punitively than whites when they are able to access the health-care system. “For anybody with a mental illness, even
though there’s understanding that these are illnesses, they’re treated like they’re bad,” says Reiskin. “That’s really exacerbated around people of color.” Without enough state-directed research into the issue, says Reiskin, complaints are treated as “anecdotal.” Simone Charles, an African-American Navy veteran who recently trained to become a peer support specialist to people with mental illnesses, says a perception that the mentalhealth care system is unfair to blacks already deters people from seeking the help they need. Charles, who is 48 and lives in Denver, recalls being physically restrained by four male staff members as a teenager, when she was a student in a Kentucky school for girls who had been sexually abused. She says she was kept in a quiet room for days at a time. But only in retrospect did she wonder whether she was disciplined more than other girls in the class because of her color. “I’ve never been restrained as an adult,” says Charles, who has post-traumatic stress disorder. “I learned that you can’t afford to be crazy and violent and black in America, because they’re going to lock you up.” Colorado Community Media brings you this report in partnership with Rocky Mountain PBS I-News.

In 2013, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reported that 305,420 babies were born to females between the ages of 15-19. In 2011, Colorado ranked 29th in teen birth rates. At Hope House, nearly 150 teen moms, ages 16-20, are involved in the many programs available such as a residential and community programs which offer GED certifications, college and career support services, parenting classes, mentoring and more. Recruitment at Hope House is voluntary, but completion of the programs is required in order to stay enrolled. “We are 100 percent committed to getting our girls self-sufficient,” said Lisa Steven, executive director of Hope House Colorado. “Almost all of them just kind of have had a rough story and they need a second chance and a place to gather themselves while they put things togeth-

er.” The percentage rate of teen moms who graduate with a GED through Hope House Colorado is 45 to 50 percent but of the half that graduate, 90 percent are successful at living independently, Steven said. The decision to support Hope House Colorado by the Junior Foundation board was unanimous, said Grace Emich, treasurer of the board. “We want to be very involved with high schoolers and children,” Emich said. For the girls at Hope House, community encouragement for their success goes a long way. “It’s a big deal for someone who hasn’t had a lot of support in their life to feel like there are people out there who really want to see them succeed,” Steven said. “They’re working really hard to overcome an awful lot of stuff to get out on their own and take care of their kids.” Cash prizes are available for the first 10 winners of the race with options to keep the money or donate half or all of the winnings back to the Junior Foundation. It is $20 for one racing rubber ducky or $100 for six. For more information about Hope House Colorado visit www.hopehouseofcolorado.org.

The Hospice Concept: A perspective Let’s start at the beginning! According to the Agape Hospice Service “Hospice is a concept of care for those who are experiencing life-threatening illness. Hospice views dying as a normal process and seeks neither to hasten nor to postpone death.” Now having informed you what Agape Hospice is all about let’s start at the beginning as it unfolded for our love one, Bob June.
An unexpected twist Bob had been in failing health for several months due primarily to Alzheimer’s and poor kidney function but we were coping and he was also. Due to the Alzheimer’s he did not remember taking a bad fall which landed him in St. Anthony Hospital a few weeks ago. There they found his blood was too thin and he was in danger of “bleeding out.” To make a long story shorter he left the hospital with his family planning a nursing home
were so relieved to know they would help us through the process. It was a huge relief to know Bob would receive the care and comfort he needed and deserved right at home in his own bed.
A short story
existence. It was then that I happened to tell neighbor Dave about Bob’s condition. His reply was “have you thought about hospice?” No, I hadn’t but I called nurse friend, Carol, who said to call Agape Hospice. After consulting with our children, I had Agape come out, and we signed papers to admit him as a home patient. It was the best decision! A nurse immediately evaluated Bob and knew he needed a catheter so she got that going. They outlined their plan of care and we
Bob was agitated and hospice called it the “terminal agitation” phase. He did not quiet down for some time; they tried numerous medicines until they found one that worked for Bob. It was only three short days from the start of hospice care to Bob’s death but they were hectic yet comforting days. There were tension filled times but the nurse and certified nursing assistant were there to provide care and comfort. It takes a very special individual to provide hospice care to your loved one. At 8:44 a.m. on July 22 Bob “crossed over” to the other world, and we lost him to this world.
Praise for Agape
I can’t tell you how impressed we were with the staff at Agape. They were a godsend in our time of decision to use their service. I would highly recommend them if you too have a need. Meanwhile it is also comforting to know that Medicare covers the cost completely. If you would like further information on Agape Hospice you can call 720-482-1988. We laid Bob to rest at Fort Logan National Cemetery with full military honors on Tuesday, Aug. 12. God bless him on his journey home. Stay well, stay involved and stay tuned. Vi June is past Democratic state representative for House District 35. She is a former mayor of Westminster and a former newspaper publisher. A Westminster resident for more than four decades, she has five grown children and eight grandchildren.
A pitch for peripheral vision beyond tech Ah, technology. The wonders that we can do with these marvelous little devices we all haul around in our pockets. Of course, if you’re a teenage girl, they’re not really in your pocket, are they? They’re more like protruding out your back side, precariously pinched into the tiny space that passes for a back pocket in your short shorts, waiting at any minute to either go flying to freedom or be crushed under you when you sit down, forgetful of its presence. (sigh) And why, you might ask, do I have time to ruminate about things such as this? Well, because, at the moment, I’m sitting in a parking lot, my turn signal ticking away, waiting for the person who got into her car six minutes ago to finally pull out of the parking spot and go on her merry way. But no! First she has to check her email, text messages, Facebook updates, and pose for a selfie in front of her two bags of groceries she just emerged from the Safeway with, as if surviving the grueling test of fortitude that is the supermarket is worthy of a digital victory lap. Perhaps that’s being too harsh. I suppose it’s also entirely possible that, before she headed home, she had to ask her phone to map the route. The technology at play in many of these devices is truly exceptional, but I fear that we — and, when I say “we,” I mean people younger than me — have become too reliant on it, and that it may be making us, well, for lack of a better word, dumb. I kid about the unfathomable need of teenagers to have access to all of their friends’ thoughts at all times; I poke fun at the person who feels the need to get completely updated on their little world before they can pull out of a parking spot. But the whole “selfie” thing makes me think that youth’s natural gravitation towards self-centeredness is taking a twisted leap off a cliff into an abyss of narcissism, and the inability to discover even the most rudimentary of processes (like finding a route home) without a cell phone’s assistance is disturbing. But, unfortunately, all of this has a dangerous element to it, as well. The other day, I observed an attractive young lady walk out of a place of business in a neighborhood that she was unfamiliar with, and which was, perhaps, of questionable safety. This young lady was less than 10 feet from the exit to the property before she was in her phone, and walked the 300 yards to her car without once looking up to check on her surroundings. My friend Jay teaches women’s self defense, and the NUMBER ONE thing he teaches is situational awareness — know what’s going on around you. A person, no matter how vulnerable physically, can almost always stay out of, or get out of, trouble if they see it coming. This young lady would have had no idea if someone was sneaking up behind her, if someone had broken into her car, or if somebody was juggling chainsaws right in her path. Zero

awareness. Young ladies, piece of advice: put the phones down and look at the world around you as you go through it. And, by the way, don’t worry about that young lady — she was my daughter, and I was “stalking” her because she was in an unfamiliar neighborhood, and wanted some backup for her first trip there. If you doubt me, I took a selfie of the whole incident ... Michael Alcorn is a music teacher and fitness instructor who lives in Arvada with his wife and three children.

Make voter registration a priority Don’t come up three words shy in family life is good tip to live by. In the civic arena of the early election season, we say don’t be four words short. Be able to stand up and say, “I registered to vote.” Even though matters of hydraulic fracking have gone the way of a task force instead of ballot questions, plenty of other heady issues and candidate choices will be in play Nov. 4. The general election will be conducted with mail ballots expected to land in mailboxes by the second week of October. Those who voted in the primary are generally confident of their registrations and simply await their ballots. But those not in the thrust of Republican and Democrat party primary activities may want to take a few seconds to double check their registration status at respective county websites. Not to cause worry, but it really only takes a moment to check a voter registra-
OUR VIEW tion through links on county websites — and to newly register is an easy process as well. Something good to know is that registered voters remain registered in perpetuity by state law. Registrations are removed only when a mail ballot comes back as undeliverable for two election cycles. So a long as voters keep address information up to date and accurate, the ballots keep coming. Those who register before the eighth day before the election at www.govotecolorado.com will automatically receive a mail ballot. After the eighth day, those wanting to register must visit one of the Voter Service and Polling Centers in their
FOR MORE INFORMATION County voting registration links Adams County www.adcogov.org/index.aspx?NID=169 Jefferson County jeffco.us/elections/voting-and-registration/ respective counties. Applications received through voter registration drives must be received 22 days before the election. And ultimately, in Colorado citizens may register Election Day in-person at a county voter service and polling center. And who can vote? The basics: A voter must be 18, a United States citizen, have resided in Colorado for 22 days before the election and not serving certain types of criminal sentences. So come November don’t be even two words shy. Let’s all be wearing “I voted” stickers.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Over Super Bowl heartbreak? The 2014 Denver Broncos season has officially arrived but after last season’s Super Bowl heartbreak Denver’s fans seem a little weary going into this season. So we asked several of our loyal readers if they were over the Broncos ugly 43-8 Super Bowl loss to the Seattle Seahawks or are they still suffering from Super Bowl heartbreak?
“I don’t know if you ever get over a Super Bowl loss but I am very excited about this season. As long as we have Peyton Manning we are Super Bowl contenders.” Joe Williams, Denver
“In my mind it never even happened — I have blocked that out of my mind as a memory. All I am looking forward to is being a Super Bowl Champion this season.” Chris Martinez, Lakewood “I don’t really watch football but it doesn’t seem like people are as excited this season as they were last season.” Kim Nguyen, Arvada

Tackling crimes against seniors By Amy Woodward
awoodward@colorado communitymedia.com Editor’s note: This is part three of a fourpart series, exploring the challenges of Alzheimer’s in the region. George’s name has been changed to protect his identity. George, 74, a retired psychiatrist, admits he has always been gullible, even before his Alzheimer’s diagnosis. But recent events have caused him to seek the advice of his family before being tricked into a situation that could leave his pocket empty or worse. Although advertisements on the Internet, which offer price specials on medicinal products, allow George to think his purchase through, face-to-face interactions in which he is being targeted seem to be a little more confusing. As he walked home from the store in the afternoon, a car pulled up next to him driven by a woman he didn’t recognize who said, “Hi, I think I know you.” George had no idea who she was but her story seemed plausible: Yes, he and his wife used to live around here. Yes, they both dined at area restaurants, so why wouldn’t it be possible this woman used to be their waitress, as she claimed? She offered him a ride home in the car, where a young man who sat in the vehicle listened carefully as George conversed with the woman. George accepted and entered the car. When they reached his home, he gave her his number so they could meet for coffee, as she suggested. She called him frequently trying unsuccessfully to schedule a meeting. When that didn’t work, she asked to come over to his house. When George informed her he was living with his wife, the woman stopped calling. “These scam artists are much better than … doctors at identifying people that have cognitive impairment,” said Dr. Robert Parker chief of community geriatrics at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. “They know they’re not firing on all eight cylinders, they know they have the money, they’ve retired ... they’re just extremely vulnerable.” Arvada Senior Liaison Officer Tom VanderVeen is the only police officer in Jefferson county whose primary duty is outreach services for the senior community. Every Tuesday at the Apex Community Recreation Center in Arvada, he shares information with seniors about the latest scams, cons and local police activity reports. He highlights senior safety, home security and discusses programs and services. Every month, he visits 15 different locations including assisted living homes, independent living homes and a memory care center. “Nine years ago they (the city) did a tax initiative position just for this position,” VanderVeen said. “This is paid for by taxpayers, I’m in investigations but I’m not a detective and 99 percent of the stuff I do is all senior related, all senior activities.” This includes educating himself on scams he can share with seniors as well as informing them on how they can protect themselves. “Right now I can identify probably about 15 legitimate scams that are out there right now that are done over and over that are coming back around,” he said. “But every now and then there’s a new one.” Cary Johnson, director of crime prevention programs at the Jeffco district attorney’s office and president of the Jefferson County Council on Aging, has been instrumental in working with the county’s law enforcement agencies. His job is to help keep seniors safe by hosting more than 138 crime prevention program presentations a year, and overseeing a fraud hotline for seniors that takes calls Monday through Friday. Johnson receives about 60 to 100 calls a month on the hotline. He restarted TRIAD, an organization built on collaboration between senior community members, the district attorney’s office, law enforcement and senior service providers created by former DA Scott Storey. TRAID serves Jeffco and Gilpin counties and is designed to help prevent seniors from becoming victims of scams and providing them better law enforcement services. Johnson is co-chair of TRIAD. “I want to be out with seniors as much as I possibly can,” Johnson said. “That’s what we’re passionate about just seeing if we can keep them from becoming a victim in the first place.” Johnson testified for a mandatory reporting bill on elder abuse which took effect July 1. For the first time in the state,

TYPICAL RED FLAGS INVOLVING SCAMS Uninitiated contact
Criminals contacting the recipient when the recipient did not ask to be contacted and asking for personal information is a red flag. Delete the email, hang up the phone or shred the letter
The need for secrecy or confidentiality
Receiving letters or calls which state the recipient is on the “Winning List” or is part of a “Chosen Few” opportunity and no one can know including spouse, family or friends.
The need for urgency
ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE Alzheimer’s is the most common form of dementia. It affects memory, thinking and behavior with symptoms worsening over time. Abnormal protein buildup in the brain is believed to cause the symptoms. There is no cure. Treatment only slows symptom progression. The disease is most common in those 65-and-over, but “early onset” is occasionally seen in patients in their 40s and 50s. — Source: The Alzheimer’s Association when George has bouts of sickness, is one avenue he will likely take before stepping into an assisted living facility. “I have a decision to make with my wife,” he said. In regards to lessons learned about
online scams and strangers approaching him on the street, he speaks with his daughter and wife about such incidents. “I’m really trying to be cautious,” he said. Perhaps the greatest asset for George since his diagnosis has been the Alzheimer’s Association’s Colorado Chapter. George continues to attend support groups comprised of individuals and families who are facing the same challenges, going through life changing conditions that only those who are living with it can understand and express. He shares unwavering praise for an organization that has given him so much. For George, his time with the association has been filled with positive experiences and encouragement against a disease that is determined to take it all away.
The criminal will insist the act to move right away, and to visit the local Wal-Mart, King Soopers or Safeway to wire money as soon as possible
Requires wired money
Scams always involving sending money in order to win money. Always remember: “If it sounds too good to be true … it probably is.” — Source Arvada Police Department a comprehensive list of ongoing scams can be found online at arvadapd.org/aboutarvadapd/senior-liaison-police-officer
persons witnessing or suspecting elder abuse are required to report it to their local law enforcement agency. This requirement extends to clergy and financial institutions. Jefferson County’s Elder Abuse Unit under the DA’s office is the only one of its kind in Colorado. About 54 percent of cases handled in 2012 by the unit dealt with theft and burglary with perpetrators the victim’s family, neighbors and nurses. Assault accounted for 34 percent of cases followed by robbery and theft from a random person at 11 percent and sexual assault at 1 percent. “(Seniors) are the forgotten victims although, we are making strides,” said Storey, senior chief of the Elder Abuse Unit. Jefferson County and its cities are pulling together and progressing faster than most counties in the state to tackle elder abuse and present the tools needed to keep seniors safe from crime, Johnson said. When Johnson was brought on in 2005 to expand the crime prevention program, he aimed to pull together Jeffco’s senior related services together. “Let’s see if we can’t get everyone in Jefferson County who’s involved in senior stuff playing well together, working together, and I think that’s happening,” Johnson said. “I’m really proud of Jeffco and especially as I look at a lot of the other counties.” George has talked before about the appeal of assisted living but the psychiatrist within him waits for “objected evidence” that his disability is worsening. The prospect of reconciling and moving in with his wife, who has remained a support system

Family Legacy Lutheran nurse honored for oncology work Staff Report
editor@coloradocommunitymedia.com Stacy Jensen, a Lutheran Medical Center cancer center team member, has been awarded the 25th annual Cochran Oncology Nursing Scholarship Award. Jensen has been working at Lutheran for more than 20 years, starting in high school as a dietary aide at Colorado Lutheran Home and Apartments in Arvada. She joined the Comprehensive Cancer Center 10 years ago. “It is our privilege to distribute the annual award and to steward gifts designated for the Cochran Oncology Fund,” said Carol Salzmann, executive director of the Lutheran Medical Center Foundation. Jensen was nominated for the award by her manager, Debbie Sack, for her many
years of dedication, skill and empathy shown to patients according to Lutheran. She was further recognized for her loyalty and support of her fellow staff, and for modeling positive and professional behavior as well as serving as an educational resource. Jensen said she plans to use the scholarship to pursue a nationally accredited breast care nursing certification, once she completes the hourly requirements as a breast nurse navigator. The award is given in honor of John and Lois Cochran, who were so impressed by the quality of care they received at Lutheran that the Cochran family started an annual scholarship fund in 1990 to help continue the education of an outstanding Lutheran oncology team member. The awardee is recognized for leading by example in improving the quality of care,
and by showing extraordinary compassion to patients and families, as well as a commitment to professional and personal growth and teamwork in cancer care. The Cochran Award is prestigious among the Lutheran staff and Cancer Center. Oncology nurses often see patients and families through a difficult journey, and the support and generosity toward staff shown by the Cochran family is an honor, Sack added. As an additional celebration of the Cochran family legacy this year, Jack Cochran presented the Foundation with a check to support five nurses through oncology certification. Dr. Cochran has presented the award each of the last 25 years to honor his parents and provide ongoing support to the Lutheran Cancer Center.

Looking for the good and creating joy The past five weeks have been extremely busy, including several flights and two crosscountry road trips. Albeit I snuck in a vacation at the beach, I was unable to heed my own advice and completely disconnect from work and completely revel in the sun and sand. However, I will say this, as crazy as the business trips and vacation have been, they have also been exceedingly productive and energizing. You see, part of the problem sometimes, even when we are on vacation, is that we quickly get frustrated with situations and others around us. We look for the bad instead of the good. You know what I mean, right? We are in line for an attraction or dinner and someone jumps the line and gets in ahead of us. And, yes, that can be completely exasperating, but only if we allow it. What if we just allowed ourselves to think positively and think, “Well, maybe they have some reason that is more urgent for them to go first than mine.” Or maybe, in the case of the restaurant, “They will not get the best server and we will.” My old boss, mentor, and great friend Zig Ziglar used to remind us that, “Some people
go around looking for the bad like there was some kind of reward for it.” And if we look for the bad, it sure is easy to find. However, I am here to remind you, as Zig always reminded me, that it is just as easy and maybe even easier to look for and find the good in people, situations, and in life. I know, I know, how could that even be possible when so many things seem to stack up against us at times? Money problems, work-related issues, health crises, and broken or damaged relationships take up residence in our lives when we least expect them, and we would certainly rather be looking at a brighter picture. And we can look for that brighter picture through the lens of hope. Even in the face of these very issues that
hurt us, frustrate us, or limit us, we can look for that silver lining and absolutely look for the good. When we have money problems we are forced to rethink our current strategy and plan. I know many people who have dealt with bankruptcy only to find their passion and start their very own successful business. There are countless stories of people with work-related challenges, who always used to blame the company or others for their problems, who then found out that they could contribute at a higher level personally and took ownership of improving the current office environment. And most inspiring are those people facing a health issue rising up to either help others in the same situation or never allowing their debilitation to limit their performance. They search out what is good and what can be done and get after it. The emails I have received from our community over these past five-plus years include incredible stories of people who felt brokenhearted until they realized that relationships that were intended to be mended were, and those relationships that needed to end actually ended, and they were never

happier once they sought out the good in themselves and became less reliant on others for true happiness. Have you ever been on the highway while another driver was swerving in and out of traffic, almost causing an accident, and the whole experience left you absolutely troubled? What if for one minute we stopped and thought that maybe they have a medical emergency and are trying to get to the hospital? Now that occurs in about 2 percent of all rude driver behavior instances, but it could happen, and if we looked for the good instead of getting angered and upset, we could easily continue on our very merry way. Finding joy begins with each one of us looking for the good instead of the bad. How about you, can you use a little more “good finding” in your life? If so, I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and as we collectively look for the good it really will be a better than good week.

Metro Creative Connection Generic foods line the aisles of grocery stores, often right alongside more well-known brands. Many consumers know that generic foods cost less, and price is a definite selling point. But how do these products measure up in taste and quality? Very often the differences are negligible, meaning generic products make smart buys. By switching to generic or store brands, shoppers can save hundreds of dollars a year. Generic foods tend to be less expensive than brand-name items because manufacturers of generic products do not advertise or market such products, not because they are made with inferior ingredients. With no television commercials to pay for, generic manufacturers can pass the savings on to the consumer. This helps consumers stretch their food budgets that much further. A little-known secret of generic brands is that many are actually produced and shipped from brand-name facilities. A company that produces a certain brand of breakfast cereal may also package that product under a generic label. The ingredients are identical, but the price is not. In many instances, the taste of generic foods may be comparable to
12
brand name alternatives. When generic products do taste differently, such differences are often minor. At the very least, generic ingredients can be used in recipes where differences in taste are nearly impossible to notice. Those ready to try generics can begin by experimenting with a certain products. Buy a small serving size of the desired product and try it, then try it again, and you may be surprised by the results. • Cereal: A consumer can save anywhere from 25 to 50 percent on generic cereal. If children insist on a brand that they saw on a commercial, buy it once in the branded variety, then save the box and refill it with a generic cereal. • Soda: Although relatively cheap to produce, brand-name sodas are often much more expensive than generic versions. Many generic colas are comparable to the better-known brands. • Salt, flour and spices: Generic baking ingredients can save consumers lots of money, and few people are likely to notice a difference in taste. Flour is flour, and there is likely only a minimal difference between one packaged by a store and one packaged by a name company. • Frozen french fries: French fries are simply potatoes sliced and fried, then flash-frozen. There is little taste difference between unseasoned va-
August 14, 2014
rieties of french fries between brands. • Medications: Opting for generic pain relievers can save you quite a lot of money. These drugs are subjected to the same rigorous testing as name-brand medicines, so consumers can rest assured that they are safe. • Produce: Whether an apple has a name brand on it or a generic label, it will taste the same. Lettuce, vegetables and other foods sold in the produce department can all be purchased as generics rather than brand names without sacrificing quality. • Baby formula: There is a public perception that generics are cheap and bad for you, which is why some shy away from generic baby formula. But parents who compare the containers side-byside are likely to find the same exact ingredients in formulas. The taste and the texture may be slightly different, but the products are nearly identical. The Infant Formula Act requires specific procedures be followed in making infant formulas, which means the generic brands must be just as safe as their brand name counterparts.

Racetrack gambles on polls to add gaming Ballot issue sees out-of-state money flood Colorado By Katie Kuntz
Rocky Mountain PBS I-News A Colorado racetrack has the chance to become the state’s largest casino this November, and it’s quickly creating the most expensive issue fight in the state’s 2014 election. The racetrack, Arapahoe Park, is operated by Mile High USA, a subsidiary of a Rhode Island-based racing and entertainment company. So far, Mile High USA has contributed more than $2 million towards a ballot measure that would allow the racetrack to add up to 2,500 slot machines. Initiative 135 has not yet met all the qualifications to be added to this fall’s ballot, even though supporters submitted more than 130,000 signatures for verification on July 14. The pitched battle between gambling interests in the mountain casino towns in Cripple Creek, Central City and Black Hawk, and the horse track in Arapahoe County has already generated more than $11 million in fundraising, and opponents to the measure have spent more than $7 million to defeat the proposal before voters even see it. “The majority of our spending so far has been to sure up advertising space come this fall,” said Michelle Ames, spokesperson for the Don’t Turn Race tracks into Casinos issue committee, which opposes initiative 135. “I think that our strongest arguments are just the facts: this is a ballot initiative written by a single Rhode Island company that wants to increase its bottom line. I think Coloradans will see that for what it is and they will reject the initiative just like they did in 2003.” In 2003, a similar initiative was introduced to Colorado voters who rejected the gaming expansion by a 4-1 margin. Still, proponents of the measure believe that the time is ripe to try once again. “I think that our country has gone
through a lot in the last 10 years and if you base any of your assertions on what happened then versus what is happening now, that’s not going to give a good bet,” said Becky Brooks, Arapahoe Park spokesperson. “We have had some successes on this track; the attendance is up and we think this is the right time to do this.” But several Black Hawk casinos that are already established in Colorado do not believe this is the right time to expand gaming. In fact, five of the largest Black Hawk casinos have already contributed $8.8 million to the campaign against this expansion. And those casinos also have out-ofstate ties. For example, one supporter of Don’t Turn Racetracks into Casinos is Ameristar Casinos, a Pinnacle Inc. subsidiary whose headquarters are in Las Vegas. Ameristar has already contributed about $2.8 million against this ballot initiative. Another Las Vegas casino company who has contributed over a million dollars to the campaign is Affinity Gaming Inc., which operates Golden Gates and Golden Gulch casinos in Black Hawk. A St. Louis. Mo. company, Isle of Capri, is responsible for contributing $2.2 million to stop the expansion of Arapahoe Park. “It’s basically just a big battle between corporate interests,” said Eric Sondermann, an independent political analyst from Denver. “This is not an election where passions are going to be high among ordinary voters; this is a corporate fight all the way.” But Mile High USA, in a desire to be more appealing to voters this time around, promised 34 percent of the net income from slot machines, or an estimated $114 million annually, to the Colorado K-12 education fund. This is in contrast to the $104 million that all of Colorado’s 38 casinos paid in statewide taxes during the fiscal year that ended July 1, 2014. Still, $114 million may not be a large enough contribution to gain support from the education community. “I am going to be very surprised if there
are people from the public education sector who will support this thing like they did two years ago to increase taxes,” Sondermann said. “That was going to raise about a billion dollars for K-12 education. It doesn’t seem likely that $100 million is enough money to be worth it.” While Arapahoe Park pledges to bolster the education fund, opponents to the measure say this new expansion will drastically change Colorado’s landscape of limited gambling, and decrease some of the funding for projects already voter approved. Steve Boulter, who operates Dostal Alley, a family owned casino in Central City, fears that the Arapahoe Park casino would not expand the gambling community in Colorado, but would only take business from other establishments. “We think that this would completely annihilate these historic towns and everything that we have done to help the economic survival of our community,” Boulter said. “We aren’t afraid of some competition and they are more than welcome to build
up here in Central City, but they are trying to write their own rules into our constitution.” As of July 1, 2014, none of the casinos in Central City had contributed to the campaign against the casino expansion; explaining they did not have extra money to enter the fight. So far, all of the $11 million in contributions to the opposing committee have come from large Black Hawk casinos. The only financial contributor to the supporting committee has been the owner of Arapahoe Park. Those interests have created the most expensive issue battle in the state, accounting for nearly half of all the $23 million in issue committee funding. The Secretary of State’s office expects to either verify or deny the ballot initiative in the next three weeks.

alk down Golden’s main street during the summer, and be ready to view the rushing waters of Clear Creek carrying tubers underfoot, beneath the Washington Street Bridge. Tubing down Clear Creek has been a favorite activity for residents and those looking to escape the summer heat for years, and a marked increase of people are taking in this recreational water sport. “We get a lot of traffic looking for tube rentals so we’re offering that for the first time,” said Bart Pinkham, owner of Golden River Sports, which rents tubes. “We get a lot of people who are in town and want to go on Clear Creek.” A bike path parallels Clear Creek from as far upstream as Tunnel 1 on U.S. Highway 6 in Clear Creek Canyon and allows tubers to jump in at any point and they can ride the water all the way through a kayak white water course, down to Parfet Park in downtown Golden. “White Water Park is a great, short section that people can do and then easily back up to start again,” Pinkham said. The 800-foot long course has manmade features — including drops, boulders and eddies — that help direct and pool the water, which also makes it a good place to swim. While tubing may look like a casual activity — and many people treat it as such — there are dangers that people have to keep in mind. As recently as late May of this year tubing was banned in Golden due to high water levels. Water flow is measured in cubic feet per second (cfs) and 40 cfs is a good place to start when it comes to tubing, according to information provided by Colorado Water Sports. If the flow is at 100 to 500 cfs, it’s a good time for people with more experience to hit the river. Anything higher than 1,000 cfs is dangerous and is best left for kayaking and canoeing. Companies like Apex Ex Colorado offer adventure tours for those looking for a little more professional operation. It also notes the importance of safety, stating that white
IF YOU GO WHAT: Clear Creek White Water Park Dedicated in 1998, the 800-foot long course is divided into sections designed for kayaks and canoes. The top is a series of drops and pools of different experience levels and has some fast eddies. The middle portion consists of flat, broad, shallow surf waves with huge random boulders — a prime workplace for gates. The bottom section entertains paddlers with more extreme surf and wave drops. Stream volume varies, but at lower levels the creek becomes better suited to tubing. There are no fees for drop-in usage and the course is unsupervised. Parking is located at Lions Park, the ball fields and adjacent areas. Vanover Park is also available for parking and provides a take-out site for those continuing downstream after maneuvering the course. The course has hosted various events including the Colorado School of Mines Spring Icebreaker, The Clear Creek Whitewater Festival, The Open Canoe Championships, The Junior Olympic Championships, The Golden Games and the Eddie Bauer Invitational. WHERE: 1201 10th St. in Golden
water tubing is an adventure sport, not just a float down a lazy river. Tubers must wear water shoes or heel strap sandals, a helmet and life jacket. There will be slides and rapids along the way, and riders can hit them or simply hop out of the water and walk past them. Children 12 and older can handle the tubing, but both Apex Ex and Colorado Water Sports cautious that any young might be dangerous. “It’s great that it’s right in town, and as water levels come down, you’re going to see tubers come out and really enjoy themselves,” Pinkham said. Visit Golden’s website at cityofgolden.net for information on White Water Park and water conditions.
Evergreen couple Kristen Moeller and David Cottrell and their two dogs were already living in a 1,200-squarefoot tight space when their home burned to the ground, a casualty of the Lower North Fork Fire. Everything was gone save the dogs and some wedding pictures Moeller snagged before evacuating. As they rebuilt their lives after such a tremendous loss, they opted to rebuild their dwelling — this time a 500-square-foot tiny home, less than half the size of their former house. Either by choice or by circumstance, there’s a growing number of homeowners joining the tiny house movement, as featured in the series “Tiny Home Nation”, on A&E’s sibling network FYI. TV hosts John Weisbarth and Zack Giffin travel across America to document miniature houses and their full-size inhabitants. The episode about the Evergreen couple, “Rocky Mountain Mansion,” airs at 8 p.m. MDT on Wednesday, Aug. 13, on FYI. According to the “Tiny House Nation” website, www.fyi.tv/shows/tinyhouse-nation, “Renovation experts and hosts, Weisbarth and Giffin, travel across America to show off ingenious small spaces and the inventive people who live in them, as well as help new families design and construct their own mini-dream home in a space no larger than 500 square feet. From a micro-apartment in New York City to a caboose car turned home in Montana to a micro-sized mobile home for road tripping — this is a series that celebrates the exploding movement of tiny homes. From pricey to budget friendly, `Tiny House Nation’ is not a typical design show, but one that proves size doesn’t always matter — it’s creativity that counts.” Lowest prices for tiny homes hover around $20,000, depending on the construction and labor cost, while customized homes with upgrades can run upward of $50,000.
Twelve’s number is up
Twelve, the Ballpark neighborhood restaurant that much-lauded chefowner Jeff Osaka opened in November 2008, will serve its last supper on Aug. 23 in the 2233 Larimer location. Osaka said he plans to reopen in a new space that allows more seating than the tiny eatery now accommodates. “I opened Twelve on the same day that Barack Obama was elected president of the United States, and I’m closing Twelve on my 50th birthday, so I guess you could say that I’m a man who marks milestones,” said Osaka, whose own mark on the Denver dining scene has resulted in a swell of accolades, including a 2014 James Beard semifinalist nomination for Best Chef Southwest. Osaka, who opened Twelve when the Ballpark area was still in its infancy, rose to culinary prominence with his seasonally intensive, peak-produce

Dustin Martin, a student at Holy Family High School and member of the youth advisory board for A Precious Child unloads a bin of backpacks and school supplies on July 26 at the Broomfield Wal-Mart during the Fill A Backpack, a school supply drive for Broomfield-based nonprofit A Precious Child. The drive lasts until Aug. 15 and the goal is to provide backpacks filled with school supplies to more than 6,500 children in a number of school districts, including Adams 12 Five Star Schools and Jefferson County.

After 44 years, the Wheat Ridge Carnation Festival is getting a bit of a makeover. Changes are being made to the 45th annual Carnation Festival and many of them are due to feedback from festival-goers, Gina Hallisey, event planner, said. “Just being a 45-year-old festival it was time to freshen things up, do some new things,” Hallisey said. One big change is the new design which will make the Midway less congested. This will get rid of one of the main complaints about the festival, Hallisey said. Things will also be more user friendly with a new ticketing system the festival is putting in place. New vendors are also going to be at the festival. Some of the changes that have been made in hopes the festival will become self-sustaining. Right now the festival relies on sponsorship, Hallisey said. Along with these changes, there festival will start at 4 p.m. both Friday and Saturday. This time change on Saturday allows for a fair on 38th Avenue and Upham after the parade is over.
Hallisey said there was been positive feedback regarding the changes across the board. “There is kind of a new excitement, a new buzz going in the air,” Hallisey said. Carnation Festival first started when the city was incorporated. Wheat Ridge has been called “Carnation Capital of the World,” which is how the festival got its name. At one point, there were 32 carnation growers in the city and carnations would be sent weekly to the nation’s capital, Hallisey said. Even though the festival is only for a couple days the event as a whole goes 10 days. New this year is Automezzi Colorado car show, which features exotic Italian cars, on Sunday, Aug. 17, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. The show will have about 100 exotic Italian cars. The Zoppé Italian circus is back again and will have 13 circus performances starting August 15, and going till the 24th. Even though there is a new logo and a new look Hallisey said the important things have not changed. “We are trying to keep all the things people love and add some new things they requested,” Hallisey said. For a full list of changes to the festival visit thecarnationfestival.com.

East Street Properties picked up and moved a historic Golden home last week at 1812 Illinois St., and placed it at 410 9th Street. The home was scheduled for demolition to make way for a new welcome center by the Colorado School of Mines. The new location will be home to the Golden Well Being Collective, an alternative health care facility. According to local historian Rick Gardner, the house was previously owned by John Gray, the owner of the Mountain Park Service Station.

Calvary Episcopal Church buys Armory building Community meetings to discuss properties future By Amy Woodward
awoodward@coloradocommunitymedia.com
The historical armory building, also known as the Colorado National Armory, was recently purchased by Calvary Episcopal Church in early July for $2.1 million. Photo by Amy Woodward
The historical Armory building has seen a few owners over the years since its opening in 1913. In February, the building’s most recent owner, Yoshie Feaster who owns Queen’s Reality based in Honolulu, placed the building up for sale after buying it in 1992. On July 9, 2014, Calvary Episcopal Church purchased the building and property for $2.1 million generating speculation and rumors regarding its future use. “Although Calvary owns the real estate, it’s not a Calvary project,” said Khristine Rogers, board member of the Golden Community Commons, a Colorado nonprofit. “It will truly become a gathering place for everyone in Golden and there are many ways that will manifest.” The Golden Community Commons was formed to handle future uses of the building and help direct the mission and goals of
any plans that are decided upon. The board is currently made up of 15 members, leaving room for one more, with the intention to add a member from the Colorado School of Mines that has used some of the space in the building as housing units for students. Members of the board include Golden residents and “nearby” residents as well as members of Calvary church, community leaders and business owners. A series of community meetings are in the works for residents to attend and share their ideas on how the Armory can serve citizens. “The community is going to be guiding its usage,” said John Wengrovius, senior pastor at Calvary Episcopal Church. The decision to buy the Armory was based on the idea to facilitate partnerships in the community which has become a goal in the city, Wengrovius said. “There was this growing desire in the community to do things together,” he said. “We saw it as a perfect space that would work well for that.” the property is located in an enterprise zone which requires that 25 percent of the space be used
for commercial purposes. Several businesses, including a coffee shop and real estate office, occupy a part of the first floor to satisfy that zoning. In regards to concerns over current tenants of the building, Wengrovius said here are no immediate plans to change its usage with all active leases intended to be honored. “We are very happy with the businesses that are there,” he said. “It (the building) is going to remain the way it is for some time.”

WELCOME New Members! 2 Go Bag Buddies
It’s grab your stein time When March rolls around everybody starts to get in the mood to be Irish. St. Patrick’s Day is always on March 17, and there are usually events scheduled for the weekend before that date so you get plenty of chances to put on your green stuff and head off to party. But, you know when it’s all going to happen, so you usually don’t miss it. But Oktoberfest, well that’s become something that has stretched the celebration out for at least two months and there are events all over the place every weekend starting in August and running into November. This usually catches me off guard because you would think something called Oktoberfest would be held in October, right? Well, let’s be honest … It’s a pretty fun celebration and every town wants to have their own and attract people on a different weekend from their neighbor’s festival so it has gradually spread out to include most of the Fall. I’m mentioning this now because one of the oldest and most authentic German celebrations is coming up on Aug. 23-24. It’s the T.E.V. Edelweiss Club’s annual Oktoberfest and it’s a great place to start your “Beirgarten” pilgrimage for the season. It’s going to be held at their own pavilion in Morrison, and if you want to drink beer, eat brats with sauerkraut and dance, dance, dance, this is the place to be. First off you should know that the T.E.V. Edelweiss Club was started in 1958 and is dedicated to preserving the customs and traditions of Germany. I can tell you from experience that these folks like to dance. This is the place that you will find people dressed in traditional clothing like lederhosen and dirndl dresses that will be more than happy to drag you out onto the dance floor and teach you how to polka. They know the best German bands in the area and make sure to book them for the occasion. They always have demonstrations and performances by their Schuhplattlers and Volkstanzgruppe folk
dancers groups throughout the event and a huge dance floor to boot. They also know German food and how to make plenty of it. Trust me, it’s always delicious. Of course Oktoberfest wouldn’t be complete without German beer, and they always have kegs of that on tap. This year they have worked hard to make the event even bigger and better. They have kid’s activities like games and face painting as well as a special traveling display from German Heritage Museum that tours the country. The bottom line here is that this is a German festival sponsored by the premiere Denver area German club dedicated to preserving German traditions and dance so it’s going to be the “real deal”. It runs 11 a.m. until 10 p.m. on Saturday with the Die Edelsteiner band playing in the afternoon and the Rhinelanders band in the Evening. On Sunday, the festival runs from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. Admission is Adults (16-plua) $7, Kids (6-15) $3 and Kinder under 3 are free. The T.E.V. Edelweiss Club pavilion is located at 17832 Highway 8 in Morrison. That’s the road that runs south out of town to the Fort Restaurant. For more information and a map, visit www.tevedelweiss.org, but it’s pretty easy to find. So go find your favorite beer stein, throw on your alpine hat get ready for a season of “Gemutlichkeit”!

Book captures inspiration of Shirley “The Little Girl Who Fought the Great Depression” by John F. Kasson 2014, W.W. Norton $27.95 / $32.50 Canada 308 pages Staying upright. That’s what you learned when you were a year old: being vertical and walking. You mastered communication at two, played well with others at four, and by time you were six years old, you could read, write, and remember your telephone number. So this’ll make you feel silly: at just six years old, Shirley Temple was saving the world from despair. Read all about it in “The Little Girl Who Fought the Great Depression” by John F. Kasson. Herbert Hoover had surely enjoyed a good run of popularity. For a decade before he was swept into the White House in 1928, he was one of America’s most respected men. The “personal tenderness” he exhibited and his “ability to deal with calamities,” however, weren’t quite as apparent when the stock market plunged, unemployment rose, and the country began its slide into the Great Depression. But Hoover knew what to do. He told a reporter in 1931 that the country needed “’a good, big laugh’” to make things right. Gertrude Temple already had two
sons when she “made a fateful resolution.” She decided that her third child would be a curly-haired blonde girl named Shirley, who would pull the family out of financial difficulties. When that child was born in 1928, it was as if Gertrude’s dream had “willed (Shirley Temple) into existence.” By the time Franklin Roosevelt ousted Hoover in the 1932 election, most of the world’s citizens were truly suffering. Average American paychecks had fallen to nearly half of what they were in 1929 – that is, if the wage-earner even had a job. Unemployment was well into double-digits; worse, for southern blacks. Food was scarce, housing was iffy, and resources were dear. Enrolled in a dance class, threeyear-old Shirley Temple caught the eye of two one-reel moviemakers and was offered a contract for $10 per day of filming. It was formulaic work, but
it gave her mother hope and in the fall of 1933, Gertrude made certain that Shirley was seen by the songwriter for a new Fox Film. He promptly replaced a “less winning little girl” with Shirley. Within a year, the world was smitten … Heavy things to put on the shoulders of a child, no? Yes, and author John F. Kasson explains why the time was ripe for a kid to become one of the world’s best-known, and then best-loved people. But that’s not all: in “The Little Girl Who Fought the Great Depression,” we’re treated to a lively, yet focused, history filled with surprises and unique perspectives. Kasson shows us how African Americans fared, both on-screen and off. We’re told of Shirley Temple’s unusual friendships, and how she misbehaved sometimes. And Kasson offers statistics and excerpts from letters that keenly show how the Depression affected everyday people, and how Shirley Temple offered them comfort. I came for the history that’s here, I stayed for the biography, I loved every minute of both and so will movie fans and history buffs. For them, “The Little Girl Who Fought the Great Depression” is an upstanding book.

A collegiate checklist By Terri Schlichenmeyer “77 Things You Absolutely Have to Do Before You Finish College” by Hailey Bondy 2014, Zest Books $14.99 / $18.99 Canada 192 pages Thirteen long years. Twenty-six semesters, four proms, countless teachers, and you’ve graduated high school but you’re still not done with school. Much as you wish you were, it’ll be awhile before you get your hands on your next diploma. Ubound, that’s you. But don’t be too eager. The secondary-education years are time to prepare and explore and, says Hailey Bondy, there are still “77 Things You Absolutely Have to Do Before You Finish College.” So, in a few months, it’ll be campus life for you: freedom, friends, parties, and lots of big decisions. It’s exciting but it can also be overwhelming, even if you’re an upperclassman. Your survival and sanity may depend on this book. First, before you even pack the car to go to college, de-clutter your life. Toss “junk,” keep what’s important, and know what’s worth schlepping to your new dorm or apartment. Speaking of apartments, now’s the time to learn how to get one. You’ll also want to know how to make it a home and, while you’re at it, Bondy says to learn to cook one decent meal there.
Why not try something you’ve never eaten before? Or this: learn that it’s okay – even desirable – to go to a real restaurant (not a chain!) and dine alone. College is also a good place to hone your conversational skills. Have a real convo with a professor (but don’t brownnose). Talk with an “elder local” and listen to what life was like 60 or 80 years ago. Volunteer to give tours in your new hometown and be ready (and knowledgeable enough) to answer questions. Get politically active by attending a council meeting or volunteering for a political campaign. Go to the library, just because. Learn a new language. Understand that naps are not just for toddlers. Learn survival and selfdefense skills. Ask someone on an old-fashioned date, but know how to be safe and how to end arguments and relationships. Learn how to make a killer resume and be financially savvy. Finally, “forgive your own mistakes” and “break one of your own rules.” Life is too short to cling to either one. Looking to make next year the best ever? Are you a little freaked out that you might miss an opportunity somewhere? With “77 Things You Absolutely Have to Do Before You Finish College,” you can gather ideas now so you don’t have to worry this fall. There’s no doubt that some of the ideas that author Hailey Bondy
presents are things you’re already doing. Who, for instance, hasn’t spent some time doing volunteer work? You probably have, but Bondy takes it a step further and she also challenges her readers to get a little uncomfortable. The nice thing about this book is that, even if you’re not quite collegebound yet, you can still get a head start on some of the activities here. For any student age 16 and up, in fact, these “77 Things You Absolutely Have to Do Before You Finish College” are what you should get your hands on.

A-West attempting four-peat but others lurking Ralston Valley tired of coming up short; Bear Creek ready for breakout By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com ARVADA - Rarely is a team unsatisfied with winning a league championship but Arvada West had been there and done that. The Wildcats have won three consecutive 5A Jeffco league titles, which is an incredible feat. However, A-West also has three early playoff exits over that time and their coach Troy Gette is tired of his season ending sooner than he would like. “I am pretty sure the rest of the league is getting tired of us winning league titles,” Gette said. “And while we are proud of those titles this season we want to be a more well rounded team ready to make a run in the state playoffs.” While the Wildcats would love to have a fourth straight league crown, this season their ultimate goal is to make a run at a state championship. Last season, Arvada West was upset in the first round of the state tournament by No. 22 Liberty. The year before that Gette said he thought A-West was the best team in the state — but was also upset at the start of the tournament. But this year feels different for the Wildcats, who not only have a great young core returning, but also add Jeffco’s leading goal scorer from last season. Junior Kyler Fowkes, who was a sophomore at Standley Lake last season, has moved to Arvada and transferred to A-West. Fowkes led the Gators in goals last season with 12 and he did it on a really good team that finished 12-4-1 (4-3-1 in 5A Jeffco). “He is a really good player and we know that from playing against him. Kyler is go-

Players have worked extra hard this summer and coach Chuck Nour thinks he has the recipe to take the Bears to the top of the mountain in 5A Jeffco this season. Photo by Dan Williams ing to make a great addition to our team and we think we can be better than we were last year,” Gette said. Ralston Valley has plans of their own of finally breaking through and claiming a 5A Jeffco league championship. The Mustangs (10-5-1, 5-3 in league last season) have been on the cusp of winning a league crown over the past few seasons but this year they might have the right tools to get the job done. Ralston Valley returns their two lead-
ing scorers in senior’s Peter Hendricks (nine goals) and Jordan Quinlisk (seven goals). Five other players return who scored at least two goals for the team last season. Moreover, the Mustangs actually scored eight more goals in league play than A-West did last season, and they had 13 more total goals than the Wildcats. But what has made the difference between Arvada West and Ralston Valley in recent years has been defense. A-West gave up only four goals in eight league games last sea-
son, compared to Ralston Valley’s 11. Bear Creek also plans on being in the mix to finish in the top half of 5A Jeffco this season after struggling recently. Coach Shane Daniels had his players motivated to improve over the offseason after a two win campaign last season and the team has looked much improved this preseason. The Bears will have one of the youngest teams in the league this season but are anchored by their senior goaltender Derick Kipp, who made 85 saves last season.
Wheat Ridge looking ripe for 4A Jeffco repeat Valor welcomed into league; Golden thinking league title By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com Alameda: The Pirates have struggled over the past couple seasons for a couple different reasons (4-11, 2-5 in league last season). One is the fact that Alameda was a young team. Another reason is that the Pirates play in a really tough league in 4A Jeffco. But coach Steve Houwen is on a mission to get his team back to .500 and back in the top half of his league standings. The team showed signs of maturing down the stretch, evident by a 4-2 win over Conifer late last season. Arvada: Slowly but surely the Bulldogs are moving forward and improving. After back-to-back one win seasons, followed by a winless season two years ago, the program had hit rock bottom. However, new coach Neil Magor has the team showing signs of improvement, and last season Arvada went 3-12. But the team was still 0-7 in 4A Jeffco. If Arvada wants to get back into the top half of the league standings it will have to start competing against the likes of Green Mountain, Alameda and D’Evelyn. D’Evelyn: Last season the Jaguars finished under .500 yet they were in the mix for a 4A league title with a 5-2 league record. D’Evelyn was a 7-9 team that played much better than the standings might indicate. But perhaps the tough luck that the Jaguars had last season will fuel a potential league title this season. D’Evelyn won four straight games down the stretch of last season, if the team can do that again, this year could end with a league championship trophy. Keep your eye on: junior Giovanni Franzese, who not only has the coolest name in Jeffco but he also had three goals and three assists last season. Golden: Last season the Demons had the goods to win a 4A league title but they didn’t have the good luck. Golden lost only one league game yet finished fourth in the stand-
Golden senior, far left, Sean Rehn took on all comers last season including Pomona captain Tanner Osiecki. This season it will be the Demons who will be the targets as they plan to compete for a league crown. Photo by Dan Williams ings. Moreover, the Demons had the fewest overall losses of any team in their league but they had three ties that are better than losses but in the end cost them winning a league crown. Golden tied eventual league champion Wheat Ridge 0-0 last season, but a 1-0 loss to D’Evelyn doomed a chance at a league title. However, Golden returns most of last season’s team, including the top two goal scorers, and look like the biggest threat to dethrone Wheat Ridge. Keep your eye on: senior Casey Crowley who not only had four goals last season but is also one of the niftiest passers in Jeffco. Green Mountain: The Rams finished in the middle of the pack in 4A Jeffco last season (6-9, 3-4 in league). And while they lost a leading scorer to graduation there is a very good chance that Green Mountain will actually be better for it. The Rams had some of the best young players in their league last season and after one more year of maturation there is a good chance that they could be the breakout team in Jeffco this season. Keep your eye on: sophomore Ian Jonsson, who scored four goals in only six games last season. Jonsson could be the next star in
Jeffco soccer. Lakewood: The Tigers wrapped up last season as one of the hottest teams in league winning four straight games down the stretch. They also had a five game stretch without a loss (four wins and a tie). Yet they still finished dead center in the 5A Jeffco standings. Lakewood thinks that this is the year to go from middle of the pack to top of the mountain as the team returns its top two scorers in junior Alejandro Avila and senior Juan Lujan. Keep your eye on: senior Ryan Furr-Johnson, who could be the straw that stirs the drink for the Tigers this season. Pomona: The Panthers are going through a rebuild, with the loss of five graduating players who were all key contributors. But the team was still 5-10 overall and this overhaul of the roster could be the perfect thing for Pomona moving forward. In addition, they have several returning players who look ready to take that next step and there is a good chance the Panthers could be better than they were last season. Keep your eye on: senior Jake Semple, who will be one of the new leaders on the team.
Standley Lake: The Gators very well could have been 5A Jeffco league champions last year if things had happened a little differently. Standley Lake suffered a heartbreaking 3-2 loss to Ralston Valley last season and then fell 2-0 to eventual champs Arvada West. If the Gators had found a way to beat the Mustangs there was a good chance that they would have fared better against A-West that next game. But that is coulda-shouldawoulda and all Standley Lake can do now is use it to motivate them this season. However, they will have to do it without their leading scorer from last year in junior Kyler Fowkes, who transferred to A-West this season. Keep your eye on: junior Nick Rosser, who not only is a potent goal scorer but is also an elite passer. Valor Christian: Despite being nowhere near Jefferson County Valor has been tabbed to join 4A Jeffco for the next two years at least in all sports except for football. And while it is still unknown what the Eagles will bring to Jeffco this season one thing for sure is that they have several very talented players. Valor (11-6 last season) had seven different players who scored multiple goals last season. Despite losing a leading scorer to graduation Valor still has junior Brendan Clark and his eight goals from last year returning. Keep your eye on: sophomore Robert Lanz, who’s six goals and four assists last season made him one of the state’s best freshman. Wheat Ridge: If the Farmers don’t repeat as 4A Jeffco league champions it would be a disappointment. Despite losing a few contributors from last year’s team to graduation Wheat Ridge will return two leading scorers who accounted for 19 goals last season (junior Max Sweeney 12 goals and senior Dan Van Note seven goals). That duo could very well be the state’s best one-two offensive punch in any classification. The duo is also the reason why the Farmers went undefeated in 4A Jeffco last season (and 10-5-1 overall). Keep your eye on: junior goaltender Chase Odean, who could be the difference in Wheat Ridge being good or being great this season.

Reigning state champs Valor Christian joins 4A Jeffco Golden poised to compete with Valor; other coaches too By Daniel Williams dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com HIGHLANDS RANCH - It may not seem fair but in this case as the saying goes, it is what it is. Valor Christian has joined 4A Jeffco is every sport except for football for the next two-year cycle, CHSAA decided during the offseason. That means Valor’s juggernaut golf program has joined D’Evelyn, Golden, Wheat Ridge, Green Mountain, Evergreen and Conifer in 4A Jeffco. That also means that those original six 4A Jeffco teams absolutely have their work cut out for them if they want to compete with the reigning state champions. “It’s going to be really tough to compete with Valor, they are really in a league of their own,” Green Mountain coach Derek Van Tassel said.”But we want to continue to get better and be able to compete with them.” To put things perspective, not only is Valor a really good team but they are one of the great golf teams in the history of Colorado high school golf. Not only do the Eagles have the five best varsity golfers in the state but they could perhaps crack out 20 golfers that are as good as any of the previously best golfers in Jeffco. “Everyone knows Valor as a football school, but in reality their best sport just might be golf,” Wheat Ridge coach Tom Dowd said. “They might be able to beat some college teams.” And coach Dowd is not kidding. Valor has already won four state titles in the school’s short existence and is expected to be one of the best teams in the state again this year.

pecting to give Valor a run for their money as they return a pair of seniors who have both taken steps forward with their games over the summer. Stud basketball player Grant Witherspoon and Ross Bradley are the new leaders of team D’Evelyn, and along with super-talented sophomore Nick Michas the Jaguars will be solid again this season. “We lost a lot of really good contributing players to graduation but our two seniors this year have really stepped up and are looking good this year,” D’Evelyn coach Troy Pachner said.
Pachner added that he realizes his team’s days of winning league titles might temporarily be over until his team can find away go compete with Valor but he is actually excited about the Eagles joining 4A Jeffco. “I look at it like now we have a chance to go out there and compete against the best team in the state and that is just going to raise our level of play,” Pachner said. While coaches in 4A Jeffco have every right to be upset that the best team in the state is joining their conference and will basically dominated it at least for the first
couple years, Pachner shared the same sentiment as the rest of his fellow Jeffco coaches. “Valor is the best there is no doubt about it but that just means we have to get better. We are looking forward to welcoming them to the league and we hope we can compete with them a little,” Golden coach John Anderson said. The Demons might be 4A Jeffco’s best bet to challenge Valor as they have four talented returning sophomores and five players who are all capable of shooting in the 70s.
Wheat Ridge still on top as others look to dethrone champs Green Mountain, D’Evelyn and now Valor to push Farmers By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com WHEAT RIDGE - Everyone wants to know what Wheat Ridge softball’s secret is and how the school manages to continually maintain itself as one of the state’s best. But their coach Marty Stricklett is happy to share his team’s secret: “hard work and toughness.” The Farmers won yet another state softball title last season cementing a dynasty that has extended nearly a decade, by hoisting four state championship trophies. What is scary — for the rest of 4A Jeffco — is that Wheat Ridge could even be better this season. The Farmers return the most dynamic hitting duo in the state in any classification in senior Analece Apocada and junior Ann Marie Torres, and they feature the most complete offensive lineup in 4A softball. And if Wheat Ridge plans to repeat as not only 4A Jeffco league champs but as state champions, they are going to need every ounce of that offense because for the first time in
Wheat Ridge doesn’t quite know who its next great ace will be but junior Ann Marie Torres is one of the top contenders for the gig. Torres is pictured here throwing fireballs to sophomore catcher Gabby Loya. Photo by Dan Williams several seasons the Farmers don’t have an ace pitcher to lean on. “We are going to have a really good offense this season, maybe one of our best ever,” Stricklett said. “But we don’t have that pitcher just yet who can lead us where we want to go.” The team lost Jessica Salbado to graduation last season and in the process they lost one of the best pitchers in the program’s
history. Now, the Farmers are holding an open competition to see who will be their opening day starter and the team may dub Torres as the starter at the top of their rotation. But whether it is Torres or another potential pitchers who earn the job, turning that pitcher into the next Salbado will be a tall task. In addition, Green
Mountain and D’Evelyn expect to both be improved units this season. The Jaguars finished as runners up to Wheat Ridge in 4A Jeffco with their only league loss coming to the Farmers. However, D’Evelyn will play host to Wheat Ridge this season and perhaps home field advantage could be the advantage the Jaguars need to overtake the Farmers. And Green Mountain
could be the best kept secret in Jeffco softball this season, returning all but one player from last season’s team that finished 1011 (4-3 in league). The Jaguars, the Rams and Evergreen are the three teams who will attempt to dethrone Wheat Ridge from the top of the 4A Jeffco standings this season. Also, Valor Christian has been selected to join 4A Jeffco this season and they could make an immediate impact. While it is unknown what the Eagles will bring to the league, their coach is very familiar with Jeffco softball. Valor’s coach Dave Atencio was the longtime coach at Dakota Ridge where he had tremendous success — to the point where the softball field is named after him. But he left Dakota Ridge a couple seasons ago and Atencio has now been building Valor into the

Ralston Valley expects lots of high-fives after scoring runs as they did here during one of their 14 wins last season. The Mustangs think they can be the class of 5A Jeffco this season and they have the goods to do it. Photo by Dan Williams
Fight for 5A Jeffco league crown By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@coloradocommunitymedia.com Alameda: The Pirates (9-10, 0-7 in 4A Jeffco last season) took a big step forward last season — even without a single league win. Alameda improved by three wins last season from the previous season, and expects the same kind of leap this season. The Pirates started off last season with four straight and they were great against the non-league opponents. However, once league play rolled around they struggled and dropped eight of their last 10 games. Keep your eye on: sophomore Arielle Apodaca, who last season had a stat line of .400, 25 runs, 22 hits and 12 RBI. Arvada: When Bulldogs coach Jamie Winsor took the Arvada softball program over two years ago they were coming off several one, and two-win seasons. But last season the Bulldogs finished 6-13 (1-6 in league) and while that still left them near the bottom of the 4A Jeffco standings it was a giant step forward considering where the team was. In addition, the team graduated just two players and returns most of their core from last season. Keep your eye on: sophomore Danea Howes, who hit an even .400 last year as a freshman. Arvada West: Despite being one of the highest scoring teams in Jeffco last season the Wildcats still finished in the middle of the pack in 5A Jeffco (10-11-1, 4-4 in league). The reason why A-West struggled was that the team also gave up the most runs of any team in league. The Wildcats lost 10 seniors to graduation but they still return several of the players that made them an offensive juggernaut this season. A-West will be a bit of a wildcard this season and could be a sleeper contender in 5A Jeffco. Keep your eye on: junior Jessi Kenney, who had a monster stat line of .450, 29 runs and 27 hits last season. Bear Creek: The Bears were an interesting team last season (7-12, 1-7 in league). They started off the season winning five straight games but soon after they had separate losing streaks of four games and five games. Bear Creek was also the victim of being in a really tough league, one they plan on being tougher in themselves this season. In addition, the Bears’ seven wins were more than they had in three of the previous four seasons when the team was coming off two and three win seasons. Look for Bear Creek to be much improved this season. Keep your eye on: senior Taylor Dins, who last season hit .308 with 20 runs and 12 hits in 18 games. Golden: By the end of last season the Demons started to figure it out. But they had such a poor start to their season that you wouldn’t quite know it by looking at their record (613, 2-5 in league). The fact remains that coach Chad Herbers took over a program that won just two games the year before he took over and slowly but surely Golden is reestablishing themselves as a legitimate soccer program. And this can be the year that the Demons go from the bottom of the league standings to the top, as they lost just three players to graduation. Keep your eye on: junior Kristin Dunson, who last season hit .435, 27 hits, 23 RBI and a home run. Faith Christian: Not a Jeffco school but in the Jeffco district is Faith Christian, who last season went through a rebuilding phase (7-13, 5-1 in league). The Eagles were a young team that played well inside their league but struggled against non-league foes. However, this season could be have resurgence for Faith, who returns several big time players who all expect impact players this season. Keep your eye on: McKenna Gubanich, who hit a ridiculous .684, with 12 hits and 13 RBI in just nine games last season. Pomona: The Panthers finished last season right in the middle of 5A Jeffco (8-12-1, 4-4 in league). And while at times they showed they can compete with the elite teams in their league they were also very inconsistent. Pomona had a midseason stretch, winning five of six games and looked like a contenders. But the Panthers would then go on to lose five straight games to close out their season. This time Pomona may have what it takes to finish in the top half of the league standings. Keep your eye on: junior Cassie Sloan, who hit .421 off of 16 hits in 15 games last season. Ralston Valley: Last season the Mustangs finished on top of the 5A Jeffco standings (14-7, 7-1 in league). But it will be a challenge for Ralston Valley to repeat that same success with

the loss of six senior players. Luckily, the Mustangs simply reload with good young talent
every season and 2014 could be the same. Maintaining that level of play may not be enough for Ralston Valley though, as the rest of 5A Jeffco looks much improved this season. Keep your eye on: sophomore Alexa Samuals, who hit .389 last season with 28 hits in 19 games. She also hit two home runs.
Standley Lake: Last season the Gators thought they were a better team than their record indicated (11-12, 3-5 in league). Standley Lake’s problem was in being too streaky. The Gators would win three games in a row but would then follow those wins up with three consecutive losses.
Standley Lake hopes the maturation of several young and talented players from last season will be the difference in competing for a 5A Jeffco title in 2014. Keep your eye on: senior Madison Schmidt, who hit .406 off 28 hits while scoring 16 runs.

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Dealing with a difficult person can be the kind of challenge you Aries Lambs love. Or it could be an energy-draining exercise in futility. Be certain your goals are worth your efforts. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) The Divine Bovine might be seeing red at having your crisis-resolution efforts overlooked. But others know the truth, and they can be expected to step forward when the time comes.

GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) You should be well on your way to finally making that important decision. Having the support of loved ones will help when crunch time comes. Keep a positive attitude. CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Feeling uneasy about a move might not mean you’re having a case of Cancerian wavering.

LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Your pride could get in the way of admitting you might have erred. Best to ‘fess up now before a small mistake turns into a big misunderstanding. Make the weekend a special family time. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Trying to please someone with a less-than-glowing opinion of something you value could be a waste of time. If you like it, stay with it. The week’s end brings an answer to an old mystery. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) There might be time to make a change. But be honest with yourself: Is it what you really want, or one you feel pressured into making? Your answer should determine your next move. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Change is dominant, but so is caution: Proceed carefully, checking each step along the way to avoid encountering any unwelcome surprises that might be lurking along your path. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) It could be a mistake to rely on someone to keep his or her promise without checking out previous performances. What you learn now could save you from a painful lesson later.
