Crossing sees three deaths in three years ‘It’s crazy at this corner,’ says one person who works near intersection By Crystal Anderson canderson@colorado communitymedia.com A teddy bear, a rosary taped to a signal pole and a large collection of flowers, small stuffed animals and prayer candles form three memorials along west Sheridan Boulevard at 80th Avenue, in remembrance of three people killed by drunken drivers. The most recent, Monica Zapata, 40, a single mother of three, was killed at about 10 p.m. on Valentine’s Day as she was driving west on 80th Avenue in Arvada. Police say a drunken driver sped through a red light, hitting her car, injuring her and her 15-year-old daughter, Jessica. Zapata died shortly after. Jessica suffered minor injuries and “will be healing with therapy,” according to a GoFundMe site set up to help care for Zapata’s children. “Our condolences to your family,” reads a card for Zapata, with a rosary of white, red, black and blue beads taped to a signal pole. “We don’t know you, but it’s hard to see bad things happen to good people.” Below the card are four unburned prayer candles.

Hundreds of people sat smiling in rows of folding chairs set up in a large room at the History Colorado Center in downtown Denver. The first few rows were filled with 49 of the United States’ newest citizens. In honor of Presidents’ Day, the 49 new citizens joined nearly 20,000 others like them across the country to take the Oath of Allegiance at more than 180 naturalization ceremonies held between Feb. 12 and Feb. 22 by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.

A glimpse of the people in our community

Clem Audin Fund Clem Audin is a fund that provides kids in need with a lot of different things, but mostly clothing, hearing aids, glasses and school supplies. Any time our children are in need, it’s a good thing to be able to provide these extra things. Clem Audin is something that has been with the Elks for a long time — I think it was set up in the ’30s or ’40s. It’s strictly Elks and all the lodges put into that fund each year. I’ve been working on the Clem Audin for about 10 years. I work with the councilors in the schools, and they recommend the kids in need. I’ve never once been turned down for funds.

By Christy Steadman csteadman@coloradocommunitymedia.com

About me I was born in San Francisco, but came to Colorado when I was 2 — so I almost count as a native. I’ve lived in the Golden area for most of my life, since I was in the fourth grade. I’m 72. My wife passed away in 1993 from a car accident. But I have a girlfriend I’ve been dating for nine years. She lives in Lakewood. We met through dancing. I like swing, country and rock — and I especially like the waltz. I have three adult children, 11 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. Everybody is still in Colorado. We are really close. I don’t know what I’d do without them. We get together quite a bit, and we have fun together.

NEWS IN A HURRY Ofﬁce of the district attorney warns people about scams The First Judicial District Attorney’s Office, which serves Jefferson and Gilpin counties, would like all tax payers to be aware of possible Internal Revenue Service (IRS) impostor scams. The IRS will never contact a taxpayer by telephone or email regarding a tax account. The scams may have slight variations, but the following is an example of a scam:

Lloyd Garrett, left, bowls with fellow Golden Elk Randy Kiefer at Bowling Zone last November. Garrett is captain of one of the Golden Elks’ bowling leagues. Courtesy photo Helping kids The Golden Elks started the Golden chapter 27 years ago. I’m a charter member — I was one of the first ones. There’re so many things that we do. We certainly try to do as much as we can for the community. We have Golden, Applewood and Pleasant View. And a little bit of Wheat Ridge because Wheat Ridge doesn’t have a lodge. The Elks are most famous for their scholarships. We do more scholarships than anyone besides the U.S. government.

There are a lot of kids who can’t afford to go to college. But these kids are bright, and somebody needs to step up. There’re two programs for kids. One is called the Soccer Shoot, and the basketball one is called Free Throw. It’s a skills thing, and if the kids make it to nationals, there’s a scholarship involved. We also donate to the after-prom at Golden High School. That’s something we took up about five years ago. And we do between 25-35 Christmas baskets each year for people in need. We put about $75 worth

Consumers receive telephone calls or voicemails from individuals saying they are with the IRS and that there is problem with the consumer’s tax account. Callers may threaten a lawsuit, treasury or other enforcement action. They may be “phishing” for your personal and financial information, or they may demand some form of payment. Often these are “robo-calls” which sound very realistic. However, some consumers have received calls, or voicemail messages, from live persons with heavy accents. The caller may use generic, American-sounding names, such as

“Special Agent Mike Jones,” as they set the stage for this scam. The number provided for the taxpayer to call may appear to have a 202 area code, which would indicate that it came from the Washington, D.C., area. But it is likely a spoofed area code and the call could have come from anywhere. What to do: Do not return the phone call. Payments and/or personal or financial information provided to scammers cannot be recovered and often there is nothing that law enforcement can do afterward. Get more information by calling the

Another revolution is happening in the storage of electricity — batteries. As the price of batteries drops below $100 per kW-hour, the cost of manufacturing electric cars will become less than the cost of manufacturing cars with internal combustion engines. That means that the 70-kWH battery in a Tesla (giving it a range of 240 miles on a full charge) will drop to less than $7,000. This drop will allow electric cars with 200-mile ranges to cost $30-40,000 starting later this year with the Chevy Bolt and next year with the Tesla Model 3. Some analysts have predicted that the low cost of gasoline — which is expected to continue for a long time — will cause the death of electric vehicles (“EV’s”). This argument ignores the actual cost of operating EV’s. Low gas prices have reduced the cost of driving to about 10 cents per mile (based on $2/gallon gas and 20 mpg). But the cost of driving an EV has always been about 4 cents per mile, and maintenance costs are ridiculously small — no oil changes, no transmission to service or repair, no exhaust system, no emission tests, no timing belt, no fuel pump, etc. The list of repairs not

required on EV’s goes on and on. EV’s don’t even require new brake linings as often, because the electric motor becomes a generator when you release the accelerator, recharging the battery while slowing the car. As the sale of EV’s takes off this year and next, there will be a demand for more electrical generation, and that demand will be met primarily by renewables. Homeowners will put enough solar panels on their homes not only to power their homes but to refuel the EV in their garage. And for now, that solar installation is supported with a 30% federal tax credit, and the EV purchase earns up to $13,500 in additional federal and Colorado tax credits. Low-cost battery storage will also make it attractive for homeowners with sufficient solar capacity to go off-grid and store daytime solar generation in a battery (such as the Tesla Powerwall). If the PUC were to eliminate net metering, making that investment in battery storage would be a no-brainer. My guess is that the PUC may raise the cost of net metering a little but not enough to cause utility customers to abandon the electrical grid for battery storage.

Golden Optimists Move Their Bicycle Recycle Program to Golden Real Estate’s Parking Lot Last week the Golden Optimists Club had these two containers installed at the north end of Golden Real Estate’s parking lot. The club will use them to run its renowned Bicycle Recycle Program, previously operated out of Heritage Square. The club refurbishes donated bicycles and offers them free to those in need of affordable transportation. The program is a suitable extension of Golden Real Estate’s commitment to sustainability.

Booming in for job opportunities By Christy Steadman csteadman@coloradocommunitymedia.com There are a lot of pluses to hiring a mature worker — they’re responsible, loyal and trainable. “They bring a lot to the table,” said Bert Hendricks, regional veteran’s employment representative for Colorado. “I think employers recognize that, also.” Hiring companies do place value on experience, rather than age, he added. Hundreds of people attended a Baby Boomer Career Fair on Feb. 19 at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds. Partnering with U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter for the event was the American Job Center and Adams County Workforce. Rodolfo Escobedo, 60, of Thornton is a CAD designer in the structural field. He was waiting in line to see which jobs were available at Lockheed Martin. “It’s very good that it is recognized that people in this age group have a voice,” Escobedo said. “It’s good that not only the house representative recognizes that we’re here, but also the companies.” It is important that baby boomers have good opportunities for employment, Perlmutter said. And “clearly, there was a need for this,” he added. “It’s very well attended.” The career fair was the second put on by Perlmutter. The first was September, but it was a panel discussion for finding employment opportuni-

This time, attendees got to meet face to face with hiring companies. “It’s better to talk one-on-one with a person when thinking about a job,” said Suzanne Isbrecht, representing Reserve Casino Hotel in Central City. “You don’t really get a good feel for the position until you talk to somebody.” Twenty-four businesses or organizations were present, plus people were

offered help with resume building and interviewing strategies. The fair is good for attendees because it lets job seekers see which companies are hiring, said Rebecca Leonard, 66, who traveled from the west side of Denver to attend. “The fair provides options and opportunities,” added Andrea VanDeloop, 59, of Lakewood, “and the free-

Visiting Angels in Wheat Ridge is hiring caregivers. “We’re looking for diamonds in the rough,” said owner Greg Elliott. The business prefers people with experience in the field, but also hires people “as much for heart as for skills.” And Elliott has been “very pleased” with the people interested in the positions available, he said, and added some of them will be proceeding on to the next steps of the hiring process. Mark Parker, the general manager for Fox Rent A Car at Denver International Airport, agreed. The attendees bring with them a wide range of experience, including customer service skills, which is what the company is looking for, Parker said. “We’re always looking for new talent,” he said. “We don’t want to leave any stone unturned.” It’s “really awesome” that the fair was offered specifically for baby boomers, said Kim Hightower, 51, of Arvada. “We all know that we’re all of the right age and the companies want to talk to us,” she said. “We all have skills. But in Denver today, it’s about who you know. This gives us the opportunity to skip the who-you-know and go directly to the first impression.”

The transportation crisis:

Where will the money come from?

Area legislators discuss ideas, proposed bill to funnel money to cities

By Clarke Reader creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Traffic. Road repairs. Too little money. They all combine to create one of the state’s critical challenges: How to pay for solutions to resolve the looming transportation crisis that affects residents in the form

of congested highways and crumbling roads and bridges. “This has been an issue for the Legislature for a while,” said state Rep. Max Tyler, a Democrat representing District 23 in Lakewood. “Our roads and highways are getting worse and worse, and we have to get more money to this area. But what amount?” Tyler, Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge, Sen. Andy Kerr, D-Lakewood and Sen. Tim Neville, R-South Jeffco, have some ideas, from looking at the gas tax, which hasn’t been increased since 1991, to a bill that would ensure cities receive the money they need for roads and bridges.

Proposed bill aims to keep more money in cities for roads and bridges To provide more money to cities to improve transportation issues, state Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge, has introduced Senate Bill 100, which requires counties to notify cities before they change the road and bridge mill levy. The levy provides counties and cities with money to address road concerns. The bill — generally opposed by counties and supported by cities — went to the Senate Transportation Committee for discussion on Feb. 23. Representatives of counties, cities and other interested parties can offer their insights and opinions for possible revisions before it moves forward. Jahn is meeting with stakeholders this week, and the bill will then return to the transportation committee. From there, it would go to the Senate floor and then to a House committee before a vote in the House. State law requires counties to charge a property tax on commercial and residential properties for their road and bridge funds as part of counties’ annual budgets. Counties also have a road and bridge mill levy — separate from the property tax — that they can raise or lower as road conditions require. The county-city split of road and bridge funds is supposed to be 50-50. But counties can reduce the road and bridge mill levy without letting municipalities know, which Jahn said is a problem because that reduces the amount of funds municipalities can access. In Jefferson County alone, Jahn said, this resulted in municipalities losing $11.3 million in 2015 that could have been spent addressing transportation needs. Counties lower the levy for a variety of reasons, including small changes to keep themselves TABOR compliant. “I think the taxpayer has been duped a little,” Jahn said. “Many people think the money in the road and bridges fund is going to their municipalities. But in many places around the state, municipalities don’t receive any road and bridge funds, and it’s just not right.” Jahn’s proposed bill stops counties from reducing the rate of the levy unless all municipalities in that county are notified. Then, a majority of those municipalities must consent to the reduction or the county must make an annual additional payment to each municipality to compensate for lost revenues.

This bill essentially would give municipalities more control over money to address their own transportation issues, and require counties to collaborate with municipalities on shared transportation funding solutions. “Cities have budgets that need to be accounted for in all of this,” Jahn said. “It’s absolutely about fairness and making sure these funds make it to municipalities.” But Jefferson County commissioners and a statewide county organization oppose Jahn’s proposed bill, Jefferson County Commissioner Libby Szabo said. The commissioners have more information than municipalities, which allow them to make better decisions on the rates, she explained. “When we do our budget process, it’s a very big responsibility to do what is best for the taxpayers, which is what they rightly expect,” Szabo said. “We look at what rates are best at the time based on the needs we see based on the information we have.” The rate changes almost every year based on the economic situation, she added, but there are years when it doesn’t — several of the recession years saw no change. Cities throughout the state — including Arvada, Colorado Springs, Lakewood and Westminster — favor the bill, said Kevin Bommer, deputy director of the Colorado Municipal League. “There is supposed to be a state-local partnership on these issues,” he said. “The way it is now is unfair to cities.” The City of Lakewood supports the bill because it gives it a seat at the table during discussions, said Nanette Neelan, Lakewood’s deputy city manager. “This bill creates a discussion between counties and cities before counties lower the levy,” Neelan said. “This is about restoring fairness and ensuring one branch of local government doesn’t restrict the funds of another branch.” But Colorado Counties Inc., a nonprofit membership program that allows counties to discuss common issues, discussed the bill and joined Jeffco commissioners in opposing it, Szabo said. “I think it’s a little presumptuous for these municipalities to think they can do the budget better than us without all the information we have,” Szabo said. “It would be very difficult for municipalities to be objective about these funds and find a balance.”

Gas tax, alternative transportation also topics for discussion In addition to transportation funding struggles, another major issue is the increasing congestion on local roads and highways, area legislators say. “This is such a big concern in my district because so many transportation corridors go through the area,” said Sen. Andy Kerr, D-Lakewood. “Most people don’t live and work in the district, so they’re traveling to other places daily.” Kerr and Rep. Max Tyler, D-Lakewood, say it’s time to revisit the state’s gas tax, which was has not been raised since 1991. At the time, the tax was about $1 per gallon, but it has since dropped to about 22 cents per gallon because of inflation and more efficient vehicles. But Sen. Tim Neville, R-South Jeffco, maintains that spending more money on transportation isn’t the answer. Instead, the Colorado Department of Transportation needs to spend its money better. “It’s not a question of the government not getting enough of voters’ tax

money — the problem is the focus on transit instead of road and bridges,” he said. “You don’t solve a problem by throwing more money at it, especially projects that benefit the few over the many.” Residents can expect more measures to provide increased oversight of CDOT’s spending this session, Neville added. He said the goal is to see a more thorough thought process when it comes to transportation spending. The increase in populations looking for alternatives to cars also is on the rise, Kerr said, and that means more attention needs to be given to pedestrian, bicycle and mass transit options. Because transportation needs vary all over the state, Tyler is working on a bill that would have CDOT hold regional meetings to hear from residents about concerns in their areas. “CDOT has been creative as it can, but there’s only so much it can do,” he said. “We also need to be looking down the road to what transportation will look like 40 years down the line.”

WHEAT RIDGE NEWS IN A HURRY Gold Line testing begins RTD and its contractor, Denver Transit Partners (DTP), have begun to test commuter rail trains along the Northwest (B) Line to Westminster and Gold (G) Line through Arvada and Wheat Ridge. “The public is asked to remain patient during this testing phase, as it is a crucial element for the safety of pedestrians, vehicles and future B and G Line passengers,” said Greg Straight, RTD FasTracks Eagle P3 project director. As the trains test through each crossing, the gate arms are scheduled to be down for two-to-three minute intervals, with possible delays. During this phase, RTD asks the public to remember and promote the safety tips below. Never touch or throw objects at the overhead wires – they are powered with 25,000 AC volts and can be deadly. Use designated pedestrian areas when crossing a track – other areas are considered trespassing and are extremely dangerous and illegal. Follow safety signs and warning devices, such as flashing red lights and gate arms. Pay attention and

look both ways for a train — you may not hear them coming. Stay off the train station platforms and construction areas until they are open to the public. The B and G lines are scheduled to open in the summer and fall, respectably. For more information, visit www.rtd-denver.com.

Accident

on all four corners by businesses — that marks the boundary between Arvada and Westminster. Memorials also remember Joe F. Gonzales and Amy Galbraith, who died in 2014 and 2013, respectively, in what police said were crashes also involving drunken drivers. “It seems like every one of these is alcoholrelated,” said Don Wadsworth, manager of VacuumsRUs, which is on the intersection’s northwest corner. In six years, he said he has seen four traffic-related deaths. “You have a hill up north and a hill going west and people are just gunning it — they need to do something.” Arvada police statistics show between 26 and 36 crashes occur at the intersection each year, mostly fender-benders and other minor accidents, such as hitting a curb or a traffic pole. “It’s crazy at this corner,” said Chanel Henderson, an insurance clerk at the Comfort Dental office at the intersection’s southeast corner. “There is always a lot of aggressive driving — people driving really fast, honking, acting crazy.” On a recent afternoon, cars zoom through the intersection. The traffic becomes more congested. A driver loudly sounds a horn as another car nearly collides into it while merging onto north Sheridan, an occurrence that is all too common, say Wadsworth and Peggy, who asked her last name not be used to protect her privacy. She is the office manager of the Adams County Animal Hospital on the northeast side of the intersection. “It’s not the corner, it’s the people who drive it,” Peggy said. “This corner’s always been busy, but with the population booming it just gets busier. And it’s usually people not paying attention running through the red light.”

Continued from Page 1

Police have identified the driver as Jose Sandoval Cruz, 23, who has been charged with vehicular homicide DUI, reckless vehicular homicide, leaving the scene with death, misdemeanor DUI, reckless driving and leaving the scene of the accident. He is being held at the Jefferson County Jail on $50,000 bond. Cruz fled the accident on foot but was arrested by Westminster police at U.S. 36 and Pecos Street. He was found with a Guatemalan ID, though neither Arvada nor Westminster police, or the Jefferson County District Attorney’s office, could confirm his nationality. He told police his address was 80th and Sheridan, but police say that did not correspond with any residence. Police described Cruz as having blurry, watery eyes and slurred speech. He told police he had been drinking at a bar near 10th and Sheridan, and later at another bar at 86th and Sheridan, according to the police affidavit. When Cruz refused a breathalyzer test, police drew his blood. Those results are not yet available. “What’s tragic is it’s 100 percent preventable,” said Jill McGranahan, spokeswoman for the Arvada Police Department. “We ask that everybody be responsible and not drink and drive.” Arvada Mayor Marc Williams expressed his condolences. “These incidents are always so sad for the victims and family and serve as a reminder for how precious life is, and the consequences of reckless or drunk driving,” he said. “The family is in our thoughts and prayers.” Cars zoom through the intersection — bordered

Three cars still stolen from local dealer Eight of 11 cars stolen from McManus Motors last week have been recovered, including a Mercedes, Jaguar, and BMW. Maureen Harper with the city said that many of those cars were found in Arvada. However, the following three cars have not been recovered: • 2015 gold Chevrolet Malibu • 2014 white Ford Fiesta • 2005 white Ford Explorer If you see these vehicles, some of which may have dealer license plates, or have information about this crime, please contact the Wheat Ridge Police Department at 303-237-2220.

Nestlé Purina donates $10k to Family Tree Organization will use funds to fill service gaps By Clarke Reader creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com Nestlé Purina, the international pet products manufacturer with a well-known Denver plant, donated $10,000 to Family Tree on Feb. 5 to support the organization’s efforts to combat child abuse and neglect, domestic violence and homelessness. “When a corporation like Nestlé Purina comes in and makes a fivefigure donation like this, it’s huge for us,” said Scott Shields, CEO of Family Tree. “We showed Nestlé the breadth of services we have and the strength of our programs.” Nestlé Purina heard about the

work Family Tree does through an employee who was a volunteer, said Louis Thomas, factory manager of Nestlé Purina’s Denver location. He said the company was impressed with the work Family Tree does. “We’ve seen the positive outcomes of Family Tree’s work, and we’re happy to provide additional resources to ensure these efforts will continue,” Thomas wrote in an email interview. “Our factories are very involved in their respective communities and we have the opportunity to make grants to local organizations for capacity building.” Among the services Family Tree administers are emergency residential facilities, legal advocacy, parenting support and career counseling. This kind of donation is especially helpful to Family Tree because the

funds can be spent in an unrestricted way in the agency, Shield said. Often, the funds Family Tree receives are from federal agencies and grant programs, which have to be spent on certain projects or in particular ways, he explained. With this kind of donation, Family Tree can fill in necessary gaps in projects and services. “We will be using this money to strengthen the available opportunities for our clients,” he said. “We actively work to build relationships with the private sector to help to fill the gaps that we have.” In recent years, Shields has seen more grants that require matching funds from applicants, which makes applying for them an expensive proposition and makes other sources of unrestricted funding so crucial.

Proﬁles of new citizens

By Christy Steadman csteadman@coloradocommunitymedia.com Wendy Zhou Came as a student, staying as a professor Wendy Zhou came to the U.S. from the city of Qingdao in China as a graduate student in 1995. The U.S. has advanced technology, Zhou said. Careerwise, the U.S. offers more opportunities. Zhou earned a master’s in geologic engineering from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, then went on to earn her PhD from the Missouri University of Science and Technology. She is now an associate professor of geologic engineering at the Colorado School of Mines in Golden — where she has been for the past eight years. “This is a very important day of my life,” Zhou said. “I’m very proud to become a citizen of the United States.” Patricia Barraza To be a part of this beautiful country Patricia Barraza, 39, is from Chihuahua, Mexico, but has lived in Colorado for about half her life. She currently lives in Westminster and has two children ages 20 and 13. She wanted to become a citizen so she would have the right to vote. “It’s important because elections are coming up,” Barraza said. She urges everyone who is eligible to “become a part of this beautiful country.” Barraza’s husband, Alfredo, who is from Jalisco, Mexico, earned his citizenship a few years ago. It’s good for the entire family that she also has her citizenship, he said of his wife.

Citizens

“Everything that is good for her is good for me,” he said. “Because we are family.” And Patricia added, jokingly, now the family of four can all stand in the same line when going through customs at the airport. Cesar Nuﬁo Home is where the heart is Cesar Nufio has lived in the U.S. since he was 6 years old. He was born in Guatemala, raised in Los Angeles and has lived in Colorado for 15 years. He now lives with his family in Broomfield. “I just realized that this is my home,” he said. One of the main reasons Nufio wanted to have U.S. citizenship is because he wanted to participate in politics. Nufio married his wife, Dena Smith, 21 years ago. And now that he has citizenship, Smith is going to change her last name, she said. José Ceballos Because of family Jose Ceballos’ father wanted to raise his family in a place where his children would grow up with better opportunities. The family comes from Zacatecas, Mexico, and Ceballos, 38, has been in Colorado since 1997. He lives in Commerce City and has a flooring business. “Everyone in my family is a citizen,” he said. “And,” he added, “I wanted to be able to vote.” Susam Encalade Making that next step Susam Encalade, 28, is studying nutrition at Metropolitan

State University of Denver. She will graduate in spring 2017 and is planning to go into public health. Encalade, from Lima, Peru, has lived in Denver for about 10 years. “After becoming a permanent resident, this was just the next step,” she said. She’s “proud to take the step forward to become a citizen.” A lot goes into attaining citizenship, Encalade said. She received a lot of support from her family through the process. In fact, it was her husband Donnell who encouraged her to apply. “And,” she said, “it’s worth it.”

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

Continued from Page 1

President Barack Obama welcomed the new citizens through a short video presentation, and representatives from the offices of U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner, U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman and U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet read a welcome letter or speeches. “By being here today,” Bennet’s letter read, “you have demonstrated that you can achieve great things.”

Citizenship — Immigrants who receive citizenship have the same rights, privileges and responsibilities of U.S. citizens born in the country. These include voting, serving on a jury, traveling with a U.S. passport, becoming an elected official or running for federal office, and being eligible for financial aid such as federal grants or scholarships for education purposes, some federal jobs

local

with government agencies and some government beneﬁts. Naturalization — The process immigrants undertake when they choose to pursue citizenship. They must be at least 18 years of age; possess a green card, also known as permanent residency, for at least ﬁve years; prove residency for at least three months in the state where the person

will receive citizenship; be a person of good moral character; demonstrate an attachment to the principles and ideals of the U.S. Constitution; and take an oath of allegiance to the U.S. Those who want to become citizens also must pass a test that proves they have a basic understanding of U.S. history and government, and must be able to prove proﬁciency with the English language in reading, writing and speaking.

VOICES

LOCAL

Our children making beautiful music together There are days that my job is truly extraordinary. Last Thursday was one of those days. Last Thursday was the Jefferson County All County Elementary Honor Band and Orchestra. Students representing every one of the elementary schools throughout the entire district came together for one afternoon to put together a concert, which they then performed that night. Each student was expected to learn their music on their own, which prepares them for one short practice the Tuesday before the concert, and the extended day on Thursday. In total, the students, who have never performed together, have about 5 hours of practice time to learn how to perform some fairly complicated music with 100 of their newest best friends. Keep in mind that, given the model for instrumental music instruction that we use in Jefferson County, these students have only received somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 hours of instructional time on their instruments by the time this event happens. To put that in perspective, imagine taking a group of students who did not read or speak, giving them one hour of English instruction every day starting on Aug. 15, and expecting them to perform “Much Ado About Nothing” on Oct. 21. In front of an audience of 600 people. Sure, maybe it’s a watered-down version of Shakespeare, but, still … That this happens at all is really a tribute to the talent and initiative of the students,

to the energy, enthusiasm and efforts of the teachers who get to work with those students 60 minutes a week (when even that schedule isn’t disrupted by field trips or tests), and to the brilliance of the guest conductors, both of whom are long-time Michael Alcorn Jeffco educators. It is HITTING a slightly unnatural thing, and yet, the HOME performance was wonderful. The kids played with technical aptitude, and there were even moments of artistic expressiveness. There are things we attempt to do in the schools that, looked at from a corporate perspective, or by comparison to athletic endeavors, seem ridiculous. This performance last week is an extreme version of that; the more mundane things are even more important. Like the classroom at one of my schools in which there are students who speak, literally, seven different languages at home, and all of them are in different stages of acquiring English, to go along with the other 20 kids who do speak English, and one teacher is expected to teach all of them long division. Or worse: long division using new Common-

Core compliant techniques, which seem to require yet a different language altogether. And, at some point in the next three months, every one of those 27 children will be taking the exact same test on mathematical techniques, and their teacher will, in part, be evaluated based on the performance of all 27 students on that test. Nobody in their right minds would ever try to execute this business model or game plan. It is that type of thing that makes teachers imitate Captain Kirk when he said, “I don’t know what I should do — I only know what I can do.” And so, every day, teachers go in to the schools and reach out to your children to desperately try to find some way — any way — to reach them and get them to learn. And sometimes, it’s just raw instinct; they only do what they can do, hoping it works. And tomorrow, they’ll try something else, and after that, something else. There is no formula for kids. And, no, this is not a lament for how difficult the jobs of teachers are. Rather, this is a tribute to my colleagues, many of whom are nothing short of miracle workers. And at least 18 of whom I got to share an extraordinary night with last week. The kind of night that we all went into teaching for in the first place.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Which do you prefer to watch, the Grammys or the Oscars, and if you don’t like award shows, why?

“Oh the Oscars, because I’m a ﬁlm nut. This is the biggest ﬁlm award in the United States! I love watching writers win an Oscar the most. I just really like watching people win.” Caroline Olsen, Denver

What is Sustainable Printing? It’s the paper: Biodegradable, renewable, recycled, reusable. It’s the ink: Soy based inks are used, reused then recycled.

“I don’t watch them, because I’m not that interested, but I do pay attention to the Oscars. I follow ﬁlm more than music.” - Lynda Fox, Denver

Rain Barrels: Colorado Common Sense

Jessie Danielson

GUEST COLUMN

Colorado is the only state in the nation that outlaws the use of rain barrels to collect water off of our roofs to use in our gardens. In a state where people are dedicated to conserving natural resources – including every drop of precious water – it makes sense to change the law to let people set up a couple of rain barrels, save some water, and use it to grow their tomatoes and flowers. That’s why I am again sponsoring legislation that would legalize rain barrels. The bill, HB161005, that I’m bringing with Rep. Daneya Esgar (D-Pueblo) is simple. It will allow homeowners to collect rainwater in one or two 55 gallon barrels

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Borrowing does not save money in the long run A recent letter written by an Arvadan misses several marks, talking about the school district’s decision to borrow money to build a new school. First, Certificates of Participation (COPs), originated for private business, and I think should be a no-no for public projects, except in dire emergencies. The strategy is to avoid citizen input and to bypass voters. Example: This board is saddling us with debt for the Sierra project that voters rejected. What part of “No” don’t they understand? Secondly, kindergarten through grade 8 is not necessary. Candelas will need only a basic K-6 in the foreseeable future. Third, student population is not “skyrocketing.” In fact enrollment in districtrun schools is down 4,700 students over the last ten years. Needs can be handled school boundary changes. Fourth, any “lack of vision” was on the part of the union-supported school board

on their property. The water could only be used on that property, and could only be used outside – not for drinking. Many constituents have come to me to tell me how rain barrels would help them. Some have water that runs onto their sidewalk, but they would rather use it to water their plants and flowers. Some people are worried about water damage because their gutters empty near the foundation of their homes or into their window wells. Over the summer, Colorado State University came out with research that confirms there would be no negative impact on downstream users – like

of 2012, that failed to ask taxpayers for enough funds for new buildings in their bond request. In fact this clean slate board chose not to use the necessary $15 mil. capital fund set-aside to the reserve. The taxpayers might now instead be obligated to repay the $40 million in COPs plus $13 million in interest, without the chance to vote. So in the long run using COPs (debt without asking) will cost taxpayers far more than if the board had used the funds on hand. And it just might cost this new board the passage of the bond which we all know is coming this November. Note: 99 percent of the cost of the recall and electing the new board came from the teachers union.

agriculture and others. In fact, this bill will help cities use less drinking water on outdoor gardens. I grew up on a farm in Colorado, and as a farmer’s daughter, I can tell you that legalizing rain barrels just makes good Colorado common sense. When I talk to friends and neighbors in my district and across the state, they are surprised this is illegal right now. These folks have made it loud and clear that they want this bill to pass. It’s time for Colorado to join the other 49 states and fix this outdated law. Jessie Danielson is the State Representative for Colorado House District 24

occasions, drug abuse was not, and in particular, frequent marijuana use. This is especially relevant due to the recent legalization for recreational use in Colorado. There are many negative side effects of frequent marijuana use, some of which are THC addiction; poor eating habits; increased stress due to potential loss of job, poor grades, and family issues; and finally, increased risk of injury due to driving under the influence. This is a golden opportunity to understand the social costs of the decision to legalize marijuana, and if our community’s social wellness as a whole is being affected. Joe Parrino Lakewood Trust in democratic process This is in response to the letter from Jim Durant complaining about increase of property taxes: “Your government is out of control and can’t be trusted….!” I believe there are two reasons the property taxes have increased: First, the value of your property has increased, thanks to Golden being such a desirable place to live;

Second, the taxation rate has increased, because the VOTERS decided in last November’s election to increase the mill levy to improve library services. “Your government” didn’t decide; the voters did. Our government is doing what we the voters told them to do. This does illustrate the importance of voting. Judy Denison, Golden

No more whiners I wish The Transcript would not publish letters from whiners like Jim Durant, whose “sky is falling” views about a small tax increase for the common good means that local government is screwing him over and thus cannot be trusted. Golden is a great town, well-run and well-managed by our friends and neighbors, who are committed and capable souls. If Mr. Durant had lived in New England, he’d know that property taxes are two and three times higher than Golden. Living here is a bargain. Michael Durall, Golden

Theater of the young

Children’s theater teaches the unteachable By Clarke Reader creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com A few years back, Arvada High School students brought their production of “The Music Man” to Hackberry Hill Elementary and involved the younger students in the production. That’s when Grant Gonzalez, a student at Hackberry at the time, fell in love with theater. He was cast in the chorus of the show and began participating in school plays and Arvada Center classes and camps. “I learned how to come out of my shell and express myself in theater,” the 13-year-old said. “I gained confidence by meeting and performing in front of so many people.” There’s a magic to theater that never fades, no matter the age, but it’s especially potent as a child. And as with so many other activities, exposure to theater as a child can be the first step to a lifelong love. “There’s something about the live theater that is just a different animal than any other form of entertainment,” said Rory Pierce, director of Golden’s Miners Alley Playhouse’s children’s theater program. “Even kids who aren’t interested in performing gain when being exposed to theater.” Access to theatrical experiences isn’t always easy for young people, particularly with funding for arts programs in many schools being cut or eliminated. “I love helping students discover things about themselves,” said Tami LoSasso, Lakewood High School’s theater director and chapter director of the Colorado State Thespians. “But there are a lot of schools in the district that don’t have the opportunity to offer classes for their students.” Future theater fans Many children’s first exposure to theater is a result of school field trips to local theaters like the nationally acclaimed Arvada Center, Miners Alley or Northglenn Youth Theatre, with shows specifically written for young audiences. According to Lisa Leafgreen, educa-

Photo by Jonathan Scott-McKean tion manager at the Arvada Center, about 1,000 children a day visit the center to see performances. Local playwright and director Edith Weiss, who has written several children’s shows that have been produced at the center, said the best part of sharing theater with children is the freedom. “The suspension of belief is so pure with kids,” she said. “You have to stay true to the reality you create, but it’s so limitless on what you can do with that reality.” Pierce has been writing children’s plays for years. The key, he said, is keeping children interested. He tries to make his shows as interactive as possible, with op-

portunities for children to answer questions and, sometimes, even get in on the action on stage. “It’s insulting to the kids if you act down to them — do silly voices and things like that,” said David Payne, who is directing the Arvada Center’s production of “Junie B. Jones, The Musical” with his wife, Julie. “What you really want is the kids to use their imagination, which is something they don’t learn in many of their classes.” For actors in the making Not all children enjoy team activities like sports, but acting provides another outlet for children to work with peers

toward a common goal, said Kimberly Jongejan, Northglenn Youth Theatre director. “There are so many children for whom the arts are their ‘thing’ — rather than say sports — and having an opportunity for them to discover their own talents, interests and personal connections is so beneficial,” Jongejan wrote in an email interview. “Knowing that there are so many kids who need this because it speaks directly to who they are makes it a huge responsibility to make sure that it continues to thrive.” The Arvada Center has offered youth Theatre continues on Page 15

Photo by Christy Steadman

By Christy Steadman csteadman@coloradocommunitymedia.com The 10th annual Colorado Environmental Film Festival took place Feb. 18-20 at the American Mountaineering Center in Golden. Hundreds of people enjoyed 50 films shown throughout the weekend. One of the reasons the film festival takes place every year is because it is a powerful way to reach people who may not otherwise have a lot of exposure to environmental topics, said founder Shawna Crocker. Everybody might not participate in environmental hikes, workshops or trainings, but most people enjoy going to the movies. It’s the filmmakers’ passions that reach the audience, Crocker said. And the festival’s efforts did not go unnoticed by others in the environmental community. On March 18, the Colorado Alliance for Environmental Education is awarding the film festival the Advancing Environmental Literacy Award. “We live in a media-soaked world,” Crocker said. “Films have the power to change people’s behavior.”

Liam Hughes-Butler, 17, and Liam Broderick, 16, perform as a jazz guitar duo at the VIP party during the Colorado Environmental Film Festival’s opening night celebration. The two played for about an hour, and they had a lot of fun, they said. Plus, Broderick added, “it’s important to support a festival that is environmentally conscious.”

theater classes and camps for more than 30 years, the Northglenn Youth Theatre for 22 years and Miners Alley just finished its first full year of classes. All three programs provide children the opportunity to test the theatrical waters. Ella Matheo, 8, got into acting because both her parents are performers. She enrolled in the Miners Alley program.

“It’s fun to get to play on stage,” she said. “And when you’re ready, you get to invite everyone to come see you.” One of the biggest benefits of theater is the way it builds confidence. “Some students find their passion in these kinds of classes, and for others it’s just good to build confidence,” Leafgreen said. “We’ll see really shy kids who come here and put that shyness aside and really grow. It’s a different story for each child.” Beneﬁts for all Whether children are in the audience

Children who are exposed to the arts awaken a larger sense of imagination, brain function and excitement that cannot be matched by anything else,” Jongejan said. “Participating in theater teaches a vast array of life skills, including common focused goals, teamwork, selfcontrol, assertion, advocacy, confidence, creativity, problem solving and physical activity.” One of the best gifts theater gives to

people of all ages is empathy, LoSasso said, and for children, that’s a particularly powerful gift. “The theater is so powerful because it helps people understand others’ perspectives,” LoSasso said. “It provides things like compassion and understanding — things you can’t just teach in a classroom.” Gonzalez has seen this firsthand. “You meet so many people who are just like you,” he said. “It’s an opportunity to step into someone else’s shoes for awhile.”

Old World Bikes offers niche in Denver market Golden shop ﬁxes vintage and British motorcycles By Christy Steadman | csteadman@coloradocommunitymedia.com

ave Porter, manager and lead mechanic at Old World Bikes, started off selling parts, which he did for 15 years. He eventually started doing his own projects, then started a shop with owner Vincent Davis in Arvada, but the shop closed after the lease was up. However, Davis wanted to open another shop, and he and Porter opened Old World Bikes in December 2014 off Brickyard Circle in Golden. But the business quickly outgrew that location, and ended up opening the shop at its current location in October 2015 where it has triple the amount of space. Vintage and British bikes are a “niche in the Denver market,” Porter said. People like them because they’re fun to ride. But from a practical standpoint, they’re a great investment, he added. “Just like classic cars or classic guitars.”

Dave Porter, manager and lead mechanic at Old World Bikes, stands with a 1974 Norton Commando at the motorcycle parts and repair shop in Golden. The bike hadn’t run in probably 20 years, Porter said, but now, after two months of refurbishing work, it will be ready to go back to its owner within a week. Photo by Christy Steadman

What they do Old World Bikes is a motorcycle parts and repair shop that specializes in vintage Triumph, BSA and Norton bikes. Most of the bikes are from the 1950s through 1970s. The shop offers full-service maintenance and restoration for most vintage British motorcycles. The shop has resources — a network of other businesses in the trade — such as welders or painters to contract out in order to offer full service. It also has an extensive parts inventory because a lot of enthusiasts prefer to do some of the work themselves. Others will bring a bike to the shop only for extensive projects such as an engine rebuild. The shop stays busy with customer bikes and currently only sells project bikes to the public. However, when time allows, the shop will also sell refurbished bikes.

Find them Old World Bikes, Ltd. is located at 13200 W. 43rd Drive Unit 204 in Golden. Shop hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday and Saturdays and closed on Sundays. People can contact the shop by calling 720-509-9293 or by sending an email to info@oldworldbikes.com. The website, www.oldworldbikes.com, includes a web store and blogs that have pictures and updates on past and current projects.

Why they love it Old World Bikes operates as a four-man team. Here’s what each of the mechanics has to say about fixing vintage and British bikes: “It satisfies an urge to be able to bring back something from the dead and revive it to a functional piece of transportation.” — Dave Porter of Arvada “I’ve always had a love for old iron…It’s satisfying to look at a bike that was in need of some love.” — Brook Reams of Arvada “I enjoy being one-on-one with a bike. It’s kind of like detective or forensic work. You’re always having to take everything in, then figure out how to solve the problem. It’s the essence of troubleshooting — every situation is a little bit different.” — J.P. Gonzales of Denver “I’ve literally been a lifelong Triumph fan. I have 14 bikes in my stable — 10 are up and running. People have a lot of different things they’re passionate about. Bikes can be less expensive than hot rods — and they take up less space.” — Rohn Hyde of Lakewood

Brothers win state wrestling titles

Lakewood High School’s Gabriel Dinette won the 145-pound state championship last weekend. Photo by Jeffery Tucker

Lakewood’s Dinette wins a close one Pomona wrestlers claim team title By Scott Stocker Special to CCM Lakewood’s Gabriel Dinette’s heart must have been beating especially hard as he awaited the decision in his championship match against Pomona’s Jayson Romero in last Saturday’s Class 5A state championship at the Pepsi Center in Denver. After all, the duo had just finished going through four overtimes in their 145-pound final. It was such a relief for Dinette, only a sophomore, when the official’s conference at the scorer’s table came to an end and the official came and lifted Dinette’s hand. That decision came after the two wrestlers had gone the distance with the score tied, 1-1. And, since they are both underclassmen, they certainly could be meeting one another next season. Dinette finished the season with a 46-1 record, Romero, 25-7. “It was tough to get the shots and neither of us could escape,” said Dinette.

“I’ve never had a four overtime match and we both worked hard. I just wanted to pace myself and push hard. We just held each other down and he almost escaped several times. This is a first title for me and I’m so excited.” Pomona, did however, come through to win the team championship scoring 139.5 points. The Panthers were followed by Poudre, 106.5, and Ponderosa, 95.5. Dinette opened the tournament last Thursday with a 3-1 victory against T.J. Skalecki. He then moved on with a 5-0 victory against Caden Feenstra of Monarch in the quarterfinals and 5-1, over Zack Martinez of Mountain Range in the semis. Indeed, it was a tough loss for Romero, a junior. Still his overall effort helped lead Pomona to the team championship. “We both wrestled good, but the outcome was not for me,” said Romero. “It just didn’t work out. I’ve had a few four overtime matches and this one was certainly tough. I felt confident coming in, but this is such a tough loss.” Joining Dinette in the state competition from Lakewood was Tiger teammate Jake Debruyn at 195 and Hayden Still at 285. Debruyn pinned Ian Helwick of Brigh-

ton in 3:10 to open his tournament competition. His quest for the title ended in the quarterfinals as he was defeated by Pine Creek’s Kacin Nowlin, 6-5. Still was halted early as he lost to Monarch’s Ian Scott, 8-6, in the first round. Arvada West’s Jack Gomez came through with a third-place finish at 195 as did teammate Cody Fatzinger at 113. Gomez defeated Kacin Nowlin of Pine Creek, 7-4, for his third-place medal, while Fatzinger pinned Fabian Santillan of Grandview in 3:17. “State’s tough as there is plenty of good talent,” said Gomez, 32-8. “But this is really something. The key was just to come out and not get nervous. You have to stay confident.” Gomez opened with a 4-2 decision against Brandon Woolsey of Prairie View then beat Robert Woods of Smoky Hill, 9-3, in his quarterfinal match. His quest for a title would end in the semifinals as he was beaten by Legend’s Nolan Funk, 13-3. Fatzinger defeated Poudre’s Brody Lamb, 10-8, in his first round match, then followed with a 6-2 victory against Doherty’s Maverick Keigher. A 3-1 loss to Louie Romero of Mountain Range ended his tourney in the semifinals.

Cohl Schultz and his older brother Trenton won state wrestling championships Feb. 20 at the Pepsi Center in Denver — but not for the same school. Cohl is the freshman 220-pound state champion at Ponderosa, while Trenton, Jim Benton a 195-pound junior, OVERTIME wrestles for Mountain Vista. When their parents divorced, Trenton transferred from Regis Jesuit, where his father Rick was the former wrestling coach. His mother, Jessica, had custody at the time but both boys now live with their dad and stepmother Christy. “Regis wasn’t a very good fit,” Trenton said. “Mountain Vista didn’t have the history, but they were a young team with a young head coach (Adam Bittler) and an experienced assistant (Brian Velarde). It added up right with the best chemistry I could find. “I still see my brother every night, we hang out and do homework together and watch TV. We just don’t work out together and (we) go to different schools. It was great to see my dad that happy after I won and see my mom that happy.” Trenton was Mountain Vista’s first state champion. Cohl’s individual title was the 39th won by a Ponderosa wrestler and the Mustangs’ tradition was a drawing card. “Youth stuff way back when and I grew up with Ponderosa,” said Cohl. “I always looked up to everything they did as a team, all the state titles. My brother and I live in the same house and we’re best friends.” State ski championships in Aspen Natalie Platil is a junior at Horizon and skis for the Evergreen team that will be competing in the state high school championships Feb. 25 and 26 at Aspen. Platil is one of the few metro-area athletes to compete in skiing, which is dominated by mountain schools. She competes in all four alpine and nordic disciplines. She drives to Boulder after school between Monday and Thursday, then takes the van to Evergreen practices at Eldora. Ski meets are usually on Friday and Saturday. Platil’s sights are set on winning the female Skimeister award in which skiers compete in each of the four disciplines during the regular season.

round 5A games were Highlands Ranch, Mountain Vista, Westminster, Lakewood, Arapahoe, Legacy, Heritage, Douglas County, Ralston Valley, Castle View, Arvada West and Chaparral. Valor Christian gained the top seed in the Mark Randall quadrant in the 32team Class 4A boys bracket. The Eagles will be a home to play Glenwood Springs Feb. 26. Other first round games on Feb. 26 involving area teams find Wheat Ridge at Sierra, Fort Morgan going to Holy Family and Silver Creek visiting Golden.

Fiddler on the boards Highlands Ranch’s Jack Fiddler might be one of the state’s undiscovered gems. “If I had 20 Jacks in my basketball program, life would be a lot easier,” said Falcons coach Mike Gibbs. “I’ll tell you, his motor is nonstop. “Jack is a good player and more importantly an amazing young man with a strong work ethic on and off the court. I will do all I can do humanly possible to help Jack to continue playing basketball beyond high school. If someone picks him up, they will find a diamond in the rough.” Fiddler, a 6-foot-4 senior, led the Continental League in rebounding during the regular season and was third among Class 5A players with 11.1 a game. He scored 11.4 points per game.

A challenging hockey option Many elite players seek club attention in order to advance By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

ewer than 400 boys played high school hockey in Colorado during the 2002-03 season. More than 600 did during the 201415 campaign. But although high school hockey is enjoying a rise in popularity in the state, a major challenge remains: Many elite players are missing from the ice when schools face off. Colorado’s best high school-age players often opt to play on Tier I club hockey teams instead of for their schools, in order to draw attention so they can advance to Major Junior and college hockey. “It’s great to play for your local school and all that, but only a few areas have big-time high school hockey where people choose that over Tier I, like Minnesota,” said former University of Denver player Angelo Ricci, who is director of hockey operations and an Under-16 national coach for the Colorado Thunderbirds club team based in Littleton. “In order to play junior hockey, you have to gain exposure, and you usually gain exposure, at least now, by playing Tier I. I don’t see too many scouts at high school games in Colorado.” Baker Shore, a 16-year-old student at Kent Denver, and Colby Bukes, a 17-year-old who attends Arapahoe High, play on Ricci’s Tier I team. Neither considered playing high school hockey. “Tier I is just more competitive,” said Bukes. “It’s a little more skilled and talented than high school hockey. I feel like in Colorado, college and the next-level scouts like Tier I or club level hockey.” Tier I travel and commitments do not allow time to also play high school hockey, Ricci said. Tier I play could cost families between $14,000 and $20,000, depending on travel, so players need to be dedicated.

Hockey Continued from Page 24

Both Shore, who has three older brothers who have played at the University of Denver, and Bukes say the higher level of competition and exposure are the chief reasons for choosing Tier I hockey. “There is a little more involved as far as the (on-ice) development in Tier I, the office strength and conditioning, and obviously you are traveling around to play the top teams in the country and play in front of premier, college or whatever scouts,” said Derek Robinson, director of hockey operations for the Rocky Mountain Roughriders, based in Westminster. “It’s really the development and exposure piece that is really the difference,” added Robinson, who is a former high school coach at Colorado Academy and Mullen. “High school hockey is a great alternative for those players who want to enjoy the game and compete for their high school in front of their friends.” Exploring options Some players double up and play at the Tier II club level and high school hockey despite seasons that coincide. Mountain Vista senior Tanner Gillis is one of those athletes. “It’s not too bad because my Vista coach talks with my club coach and kind of works out all the conflicts, but I know for other guys, it is kind of a struggle,” said Gillis, who plays for a club team based in the Littleton Hockey Association. “It feels good to be a part of your school and play for your school. Usually the practices are spread out, but obviously it is tough on the body. I prefer club hockey because it is a little more competitive and highly intense.” Eric Wilson is a senior captain of the Standley Lake team. He has played club hockey but is strictly a high-school player this season. “I figured it would be a good experience and fun to play my last year of high school,” Wilson said. “I feel the level of play has increased over the past few years... it’s a good league to play in. It is fun to play high school because it’s a little bit bigger stage compared to just club.” Another option exists for players who

want more ice action but don’t want to choose between club and high school or don’t want to play both. The Colorado Prep Hockey League, backed by USA Hockey, has 20 teams and plays a fall schedule that doesn’t overlap with the Colorado High School Activities Association’s winter season. The CPHL is attracting players who used to play Tier II hockey. Heritage High School coach and CPHL President Jeremy Sims said the game is trending toward more players choosing the option of playing in the fall league and then for their high school teams. All but the very best players will go that route, he believes. “You’ll have your Tier I top-level kids and high school for everybody else,” he said. What’s next? Bert Borgmann, CHSAA assistant commissioner, said for many players, there is an appeal to the high school game that club teams can’t match. “A lot of the draw for high school hockey is people are coming out to watch and kids are representing a school and not just a club,” he said. “That’s a drawing card for kids because they like to play in front of their friends and peers. I feel like we’re going to see one, two or three teams added each of the next three or four years.” In the early 1990s, only 14 teams played high school hockey in Colorado. Today, there are 30 CHSAA-sanctioned varsity squads. Most of those are co-op teams that draw players from other schools within the district. The momentum is building, and Castle View joined the CHSAA ranks this season. Next year three more teams will be added, though none are from the Denver metro area. Some teams sponsored by high schools even have junior varsity teams. With this growth, some say Colorado is on its way to establishing itself as a high school hockey hotbed. “That will happen without a doubt,” said George Gwozdecky, Valor Christian’s coach and former coach of the powerful University of Denver hockey team from 1994-2013. “Whether you are a kid in Minnesota, Massachusetts or Colorado, even if you’re a topnotch player, the next step after high school is to play a year of junior hockey. But without a doubt, high school hockey in this state is going to continue to grow, continue to develop its depth and develop great young players.”

GLOSSARY OF TERMS Junior Hockey For players between the ages of 16 and 21. In Canada the highest level is Major Junior and in the United State top level is Tier I. Major Junior: Overseen by the Canadian Hockey League, which places a cap of three 20-year-old players per team. Once a player participates in one game he is no longer eligible to play NCAA hockey. Players receive stipends; some CHL players have already signed contracts with National Hockey League teams so the NCAA considers the CHL a pro league. Junior A is one level below Major Junior in Canada. There are also Junior B, C and D depending on the skill level of a player.

Tier I: The United States Hockey League is the only Tier I league in the U.S. and gives players the chance to play at an NCAA school before the NHL. All equipment is provided by the teams including billet housing. However, pro drafting is less for Tier I players than those in Major Junior. Tier II: The only Tier II circuit in the U.S. is the North American Hockey League. This league provides another option to Major Junior but the skill level of the players is less than Tier I or Major Junior. Tier III: Many Tier III players who compete in seven USA hockey leagues are seeking to improve their skill level to advance to Tier II or Tier I or possibly go to Division III colleges.

Munro to coach lacrosse at Mountain Vista Jamie Munro, the CEO and founder of 3d lacrosse, will be the Mountain Vista boys lacrosse coach this spring. Munro takes over for Jake Herman, who died Jan. 18. Munro was head coach at Vista in 2013 and was an assistant for Herman the past two seasons. He has also been an assistant at Colorado College and Yale, and was the University of Denver’s head coach from 1999-2009. The Big House awaits McCaffrey Valor Christian junior quarterback Dylan McCaffrey, the 2015 Colorado Community Media Offensive Player of the Year, has verbally committed to play football for the University of Michigan as part of coach Jim Harbaugh’s 2017 recruiting class, according to the Detroit Free Press. McCaffrey, whose older brothers Max played at Duke and Christian was The Associated Press Player of the Year last season at Stanford, passed for 2,800 yards and 27 touchdowns during the 2015 season. He ran for 592 yards and 13 touchdowns and also caught three passes, two of which were for touchdowns. He opted for the opportunity to play at Michigan Stadium — which has capacity for more than 100,000 fans and is nicknamed The Big House — despite reported offers from schools such as LSU, UCLA, Colorado, Colorado State, Arizona State, Nebraska, Penn State and others. In another verbal commitment, Arvada West’s 7-foot center Dallas Walton confirmed to BuffZone that he will play basketball next season at the University of Colorado.

Bill to overhaul teacher evaluations dies Debate echoes arguments about testing, accountability

By Todd Engdahl, Chalkbeat Colorado todd@toddengdahl.com A bill that would have dramatically changed Colorado’s teacher evaluation system was defeated last week on a 6-3 vote by the Senate Education Committee. Senate Bill 16-105, originally introduced with bipartisan sponsorship, would have allowed school districts to drop the use of student academic growth data in teacher evaluations. It also would have eliminated the annual evaluation requirement for effective and highly effective teachers. Two Republicans who originally signed on to the bill, including state Sen. Laura Wood of Thornton, voted no Feb. 18. The requirement to base at least half of a teacher’s annual evaluation on student academic growth is a centerpiece of 2010’s landmark education evaluation law, Senate Bill 10-191. That provision was hotly disputed then, and the Feb. 18 hearing demonstrated that passage of six years hasn’t fully cooled the passions. Some lawmakers and education reform groups argue that use of student growth data gives a fuller, more objective picture of a teacher’s effectiveness than what’s provided only by a principal’s classroom observations and evaluation. But many teachers, unions and lawmakers believe that use of student growth data is unfair, saying the tests used to generate that data are flawed and provide an incomplete picture. Critics also argue the evaluation law

has placed a bureaucratic burden on districts, particularly smaller ones. “This is not a valid method to evaluate teachers,” the bill’s chief sponsor, Sen. Mike Merrifield, D-Colorado Springs, told his fellow committee members. “We are not doing away with teacher evaluation. We are trying to change it so it is more fair and useful.” The four hours of testimony and committee discussion resurrected arguments, beliefs and fears raised by the intense debate over SB 10-191 six years ago. Committee member Sen. Mike Johnston, D-Denver, was the primary author of that bill. Six years ago, as chairman of the House Education Committee, SB 16-105 champion Merrifield fought a losing battle against SB 10-191. “This has been a great conversation. We had this debate before, but each year it gets more respectful,” Johnston said to Merrifield at one point. “Some things have stayed the same since this conversation started, and some things have changed.” Johnston joined the five Republican members of the Senate Education Committee Feb. 18 in voting against Merrifield’s bill. Two of those Republicans, conservative Sens. Vicki Marble of Fort Collins and Woods, originally co-sponsored SB 16-105. In closing remarks, both said they’d decided the bill wasn’t the right solution, although they didn’t fully articulate why they changed their minds. Some conservative interest groups like the Independence Institute opposed the bill. Two committee Democrats — Sens. Andy Kerr of Lakewood and Nancy Todd of Aurora — voted for Merrifield’s bill. Both were in the House six years

PENDING BILLS TIED TO TEACHER EVALUATIONS Three other evaluation-related bills are pending this session: House Bill 16-1016 — Would provide state help to districts to develop additional measures of student growth House Bill 16-1121 — Would exempt nationally board-certiﬁed teachers from the requirement for annual evaluations ago and voted against the original evaluation law. Merrifield’s attempt to rein in that law this year drew close attention from interest groups. It was supported by teachers unions and the Colorado Association of School Executives, which backed SB 10-191. Merrifield’s bill was opposed by multiple business and education reform groups, and many of their representatives testified Feb. 18. Evaluation law has rolled out in slow motion The evaluation law has been put into effect in stages and isn’t yet fully implemented, partly because of the complexities of setting up the evaluation system and partly because the 2014 launch of new state tests created a gap in the state data needed to measure student academic growth. The 2014 legislature gave school districts flexibility in using growth data for the 2014-15 school year. Districts could use 50 percent, 0 percent or anything in between. The 2015 legislature made a different tweak in the evaluation law. In the current school year, districts are required to base 50 percent of

House Bill 16-1099 — Would repeal a provision that requires mutual consent of a teacher and a principal for placement in a school and would create additional protections for teachers who aren’t placed There’s been statehouse chatter about extending the current timeout on use of state test data in evaluations, but no concrete proposals have surfaced. evaluations on student growth. But last year’s testing reform law barred districts from using state testing data to measure growth. That testing law also says that if school districts don’t receive state test results in time to use them for evaluations, districts should use local measures of growth. It’s a common misconception that student growth is based only on data derived from state test results. The original evaluation law required that growth be determined by “multiple measures” such as state tests, local tests and other data. The law also gives districts flexibility in how they weight the different data used to make up the 50 percent. Some districts use school accreditation ratings as part of the growth measure and apply them to all teachers in a school. The evaluation system wouldn’t work without local measures of growth. Statewide tests are given in language arts and math, but only in grades three through nine. State science and social studies tests are given only once in elementary, middle and high school. And the majority of teachers don’t teach those subjects.

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF FEB. 22, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Time is on your side in the early part of the week. But anything left undone by midweek will need to be put into rush mode. The weekend offers choices for you and someone special. TAURUS (April 30 to May 20) Finally getting credit for a contribution is nice for all you ideagenerating Ferdinands and Fernandas. But don’t sit on your laurels under the cork tree. Use it as a first step to a bigger opportunity. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Despite the progress made, a hint of doubt might set in. That’s OK. You need to stop and consider not only what you’re doing but also how you are doing. Make adjustments where needed. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The dreamer is dominant in the Moon Child’s aspect, but a dollop of hardheaded practicality is coming up fast and jockeying for space. The challenge is to make room for both modes. LEO (July 23 to August 22) It’s a good week for Leos and Leonas to start assessing what they’ve done and what they plan to do. Moving to a new environment -- home or job-related -is a possibility for some Cats. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) The week calls for Virgos to make tough decisions, but in a way that leaves the door open for changes. Ask for advice from someone who has been in the position you’re in now.

TO SOLVE SUDOKU: Numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Disappointments are never easy to take, but you have the ability to learn from them and go on to success. Meanwhile, continue to build up your contacts. You’ll need them soon. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Things might still be going much too slowly to suit you. But you need the time to make sure they’re going in the right direction. It’s easier to make a course correction now rather than later. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Showing some temperament at the way things are going is one way of getting your point across. Just don’t overdo it, or you risk turning away more-moderate supporters.

Answers

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Things could change more quickly this week than you like. But don’t fret; you’ll most likely find that you’re up to the challenges. The weekend offers much-needed relaxation. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Big challenge coming up? Uncross those fingers and believe that you’re going to do well. And keep in mind that so many people have faith in your ability to succeed. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Testing the waters is a good way of learning about an opportunity before plunging right in. Ask more questions and be alert to any attempts to avoid giving complete answers. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a gift for making people -- and animals, too -- feel special and loved.

A partial list of “exempt property” is shown below, along with the law which may make all or part of your money or property exempt. The purpose of this notice is to tell you about these rights. PARTIAL LIST OF EXEMPT PROPERTY 1. All or part of your property listed in Sections 13-54-101 and 102, C.R.S., including clothing, jewelry, books, burial sites, household goods, food and fuel, farm animals, seed, tools, equipment and implements, military allowances, stock-in-trade and certain items used in your occupation, bicycles, motor vehicles (greater for disabled persons), life insurance, income tax refunds, including a refund attributed to an earned income tax credit or child tax credit, money received because of loss of property or for personal injury, equipment that you need because of your health, or money received because you were a victim of a crime. 2. All or part of your earnings under Section 13-54-104, C.R.S. 3. Worker’s compensation benefits under Section 8-42-124, C.R.S. 4. Unemployment compensation benefits under Section 8-80-103, C.R.S. 5.

If the money or property which is being withheld from you includes any “exempt property”, you must file within 10 days of receiving this notice a written Claim of Exemption with the Clerk of the Court describing what money or property you think is “exempt property” and the reason that it is exempt. YOU MUST USE THE APPROVED FORM attached to this Writ or a copy of it. When you file the claim, you must immediately deliver, by certified mail, return receipt requested, a copy of your claim to the Garnishee (person/place that was garnished) and to the Judgment Creditor’s attorney, or if none, to the Judgment Creditor at the address shown on this Writ with Notice. Notwithstanding your right to claim the property as “exempt,” no exemption other than the exemptions set forth in Section 13-54104(3), C.R.S., may be claimed for a Writ which is the result of a judgment taken for arrearages for child support or for child support debt. Once you have properly filed you claim, the court will schedule a hearing within 10 days. The Clerk of the Court will notify you and the Judgment Creditor or attorney of the date and time of the hearing, by telephone, by mail or in person. When you come to your hearing, you should be ready to explain why you believe your money or property is “exempt property”. If you do not appear at the scheduled time, your money or property may be taken by the Court to pay the judgment entered against you. REMEMBER THAT THIS IS ONLY A PARTIAL LIST OF “EXEMPT PROPERTY”; you may wish to consult with a lawyer who can advise you of your rights. If you cannot afford one, there are listings of legal assistance and legal aid offices in the yellow pages of the telephone book. You must act quickly to protect your rights. Remember, you only have 10 days after receiving this notice to file your claim of exemption with the Clerk of the Court.

CITY BELL There is an old bell that currently resides at Golden’s city hall at 911 10th St.

The City of Denver first got the bell in 1867, but soon outgrew it and gave it to the City of Golden to use as a fire alarm in 1883. It was originally located where the Meyers Hardware parking lot is now. It served the city well, but on Nov. 11, 1918, a joyous Golden celebrated the end of World War I, and people rang the bell for nine hours straight until it finally cracked.

The bell was eventually moved to City Hall. The Golden Jaycees ﬁrst dedicated the bell in its current location on Nov. 11, 1968. Students from Mitchell Elementary School buried a time capsule to commemorate the dedication. That capsule is set to be opened on Nov. 11, 2018.

Con test !

Now named the Liberty Bell and tower, it was rededicated by the city council and community members on Nov. 11, 2001. A second time capsule was also buried, to be opened on Nov. 11, 2101.

ONE HUNDRED FIFTIETH YEAR--NO. 5

GOLDEN, COLORADO, FEBRUARY 25, 2016

FOUNDED IN 1866 BY GEORGE WEST

Golden’s colorful city council By Christy Steadman csteadman@coloradocommunitymedia.com Golden’s first mayor resigned after only serving three months in office because he decided to “go for the gold” in the mountains. But Goldenites, who numbered about 500 people at the time, didn’t think anything of the resignation — there was a gold rush going on, after all. And John W. Stanton, originally from Missouri, was a gold assayer and prospector. Golden’s first governmental body took office in April 1860: A mayor, eight councilors, a recorder, a marshal and a treasurer. Along with Stanton, two councilors also resigned, so a special election took place on June 16, 1860, and Daniel L. McCleery became the new mayor. Joining him were new councilors Isaac E. Hardy, also Golden’s first postmaster, and the Golden Transcript’s founder George West. Golden’s governmental body has “had its own unique, interesting people,” said historian Richard Gardner. “There’s been good guys, a few bad guys, and all sorts of people in between.” McCleery is the only city official to be put on trial for attempted murder. The charge was assault with attempt to kill, and it stemmed from some sort

of ranching conflict. Whether guilty or not, he got away with it because of a hung jury, Gardner said. Another colorful character to serve Golden was Francis Everett, who killed himself while in office in 1884. Everett was a banker, but lost all of his bank’s money in the Valley Smelting Works, which was built in 1879 to meet the growing need for ore processing, where Everett served as treasurer. He shot himself before his affiliation with the scandal was made public. Then there was Andrew Holmes, who served as supervisor of streets but was elected to serve Ward 3 in 1882. Holmes submitted his Oath of Office in writing for Ward 3, but for some unknown reason, the railroad engineer never made it to a single meeting. Golden’s governmental body has been an “evolving creature over time,” Gardner said. In 1871, a citizen’s petition led to the creation of a town government that existed of a board of trustees that elected the mayor among themselves and called the position president. On April 8, 1879, the city government went back to its original form of one mayor and eight councilors. For the first time, the councilors were elected to serve four wards. In 1969, half of the ward seats were eliminated, and the existing system was created — two districts comprised of two wards.

On Oct. 11, 1947, a city manager was hired for the first time — a position that is held today by Jason Slowinski, who took over the position when Mike Bestor retired after holding the position since 1993. With the new city manager position in 1947, the mayor seat was abolished, and the person holding that position was once again elected by the council members. It wasn’t until Nov. 6, 2001, that a voter-elected mayor came back. The people voted 3,014 to 1,553 in favor of restoring it. Golden has had 47 mayors through the years. The longest serving mayor was Elbert Jones, with six nonconsecutive terms, from 1925 to 1928 and from 1931 to 1939. Golden’s first female mayor is Ruth Maurer, who served two terms as mayor from 1982 to 1986. Golden’s current mayor, Marjorie Sloan, has become the longest-serving female on Golden’s city council. There are many positive experiences that arise from being mayor, Sloan said, and added she especially enjoys interacting with the children of the community. “It’s great that our community is small enough that they have a personal connection with the mayor and city councilors,” she said. “It is an amazing honor to be mayor of Golden — to be charged with working for the good of such a good community.”
