Learn the ins and outs of the criminal justice system District attorney’s citizens academy applications due Aug. 31 STAFF REPORT

Applications for the 2018 session of the First Judicial District Attorney’s Citizens Academy are being accepted through Aug. 31. Open to residents of Jefferson and Gilpin counties, the academy gives

participants a better understanding of the criminal justice system. The academy meets from 6-9 p.m. Wednesdays from Sept. 19 to Dec. 12 at the District Attorney’s Training Room, 500 Jefferson County Parkway, Golden. The 12-week academy is designed to immerse participants in the judicial process, bringing the community together with law enforcement officers, prosecutors, defense attorneys and judges. “The work of the district attorney’s office within the criminal

justice system is far more complex and diverse than most people know,” DA Pete Weir said in a news release. “With this program, we can show people not only the role of the district attorney’s office, but can also open up the process to them, helping to create a more informed and enlightened community.” The academy includes hands-on instruction on case investigation and prosecution, including presentations on topics such as the autopsy of a high-profile case, child sex

trafficking, elder abuse and identity theft. The academy will include dialogue with criminal justice leaders, visits to the court and detention center, reviews of the functions of the district attorney’s office, and a walk-through of a criminal case. Participants must submit an application and pass a criminal history background check. Space is limited. For information and an application, go to www.jeffco.us/2328/ citizens-academy.

Sell Your Home for $5,000, Regardless of Price? There’s a Reason to Be Suspicious A successful real estate firm that got its start in Denver is spreading its business model nationwide. I’m not giving its name, but only because the company is prone to suing those who speak negatively about them and their business model. How successful are they? They have 147 active listings, 90 listings under contract, and 741 sold listings in the past 12 months. Their roster currently includes 21 licensed agents, 14 of whom are newer, judging from their license numbers. This non-Realtor firm’s approach is to assail Realtors for “overchargeing” sellers, advertising that they will sell any home, regardless of price for $5,000. Half that amount goes to them — with $500 paid upfront, whether or not it sells — and $2,500 is their suggested commission for buyers’ agents. What they don’t disclose is that the vast majority of their clients end up paying much more than $2,500 to buyers’ agents. Agents for this firm work on salary, get 4 weeks paid vacation, health insurance and can turn off their phones after work. It sounds like a nice place to work, but is it a model that produces the best results for real estate clients? This firm promotes how much it saves sellers by citing 6% as the typical commission — in fact, the average commission is now in the mid 5’s — comparing that to their $5,000 flat fee. On their website they boast about the millions of dollars they save sellers by multiplying all their transactions by $5,000 and multiplying all other transactions by 6%. That’s a great way to get a listing appointment, but that listing appointment frequently ends up with sellers agreeing to offer a much higher co-op commission. Sounds like “bait and switch,” doesn’t it? The proof is in the MLS itself. Of this compa-

ny’s 147 current active listings, only 14 are offering $2,500 co-op commission. More than 3 times as many (44) are offering the typical 2.8% commission, and another 33 offer at least 2%. But all 14 of those listings offering $2,500 commissions to buyer agents have the following statement under “Broker Remarks” — remarks not seen by the public but visible to every buyer’s agent: “Commission listed is not a fixed rate and is NEGOTIABLE. Buyer and buyer agents can request additional commission if needed by putting the following into Section 30. Additional Provisions: "Buyer directs Seller to pay "Buyer Agent's Brokerage" an additional "$XXXX" on top of the MLS advertised "XXXX for a total of $XXXX".” Given that explicit instruction, it’s reasonable to assume that a majority of those listings offering only $2,500 to the buyer’s agent will end up paying a good deal more. Unfortunately, the MLS doesn’t require the disclosure of the buyer agent’s commission actually paid at closing. This brokerage claims to offer full service, but three-quarters of its listings have the following statement under Broker Remarks: “Seller has requested no Sunday deadlines and that all deadlines be 5 pm. All offers must be received by 8 am for same day response.” Personally, I’m offended by this blatant misrepresentation. The seller did not request no Sunday deadlines, although that “request” might be in the listing agreement they signed. It sounds like a lie. (Remember, their salaried agents are told they can turn off their phones when they go home.) Also, I couldn’t find a single listing advertising an open house. Full service? Not in my book.

Just Listed: Lakewood Estates Ranch on Cul-de-Sac Lakewood Estates is a 1980's neighborhood located on the south side of Jewell Avenue, across from White Fence Farm. This home, at 6035 W. Evans Ave., is on a super-quiet cul-de-sac, deep within the subdivision. You'll like the hardwood floors, vaulted ceiling and two gas fireplaces. The private backyard has a spacious patio and storage shed with skylight. The updated kitchen has granite countertops, black appliances and a large eating $500,000 area, which is in addition to the formal dining room. Multiple skylights bathe the family room and master bedroom in sunlight. You can take a narrated video tour online at www.LakewoodHome.info. Open house is Saturday, Aug 4, 11 to 2.

I should note that my most recent personal experience selling one of this brokerage’s listings was actually quite positive. The advertised co-op commission was 3.1% — the highest coop I’ve ever earned. It was an $800,000 listing, and the seller explained to me that he wanted buyer agents to earn as much as they might on a million-dollar listing. Interesting sentiment, which I accepted graciously. Also, I must say that I was impressed by this company’s use of technology and that they communicated and responded more effectively than their Broker Remarks indicated they would. Notwithstanding this recent experience, I don’t appreciate the way this company misleads the public in their advertising and on their website. They do save sellers on the listing commission, charging a flat $2,500 instead of 2% or more. That’s a pretty low amount for listing a home, but then again, they don’t spend much in the way of time or money on their listings — I didn’t see magazine-quality photos or video tours, for example — and their goal is clearly to make up for their low listing commission with a high number of listings. Do sellers benefit from their business model? That’s debatable given the lack of time and resources that sellers receive from a full-time, experienced agent who can price their home right to draw competing offers and then bid those offers up to net the highest price for their

home. For example, they priced a home in my own subdivision for $100,000 less than my valuation software suggested. (As a nonRealtor firm, they don’t have access to the same sophisticated valuation model, called RPR, that I use.) Then they went under contract in one day. This is not a good sign for the homeowner, because if an offer comes in on the first day it’s pretty likely that other offers will soon follow. I’m confident that my neighbor left a lot more money on the table than he “saved” by listing with this “flat-rate” brokerage. (FYI, this seller offered $12,500 co-op, and may have paid more.) This brokerage will continue to be successful with their business model, and I will continue to show and sell their homes — getting a pretty good deal for my buyers because of their low listing prices, while earning the kind of commission which any hard-working buyer’s agent should expect to earn.

Two Price Reductions of Note

We have two Arvada listings which have just reduced their listing prices. One is a 7bedroom home at 7587 Union Court, now listed at $890,000. (see video tour at www.ArvadaHome.info). The other is a 3bedroom ranch at 20062 W. 95th Place, now listed at $548,900. (see video tour at www. CandelasRanch.info.)

West Denver Condo Just Listed by Andrew Lesko This affordable 2-bedroom garden-level condo at 4820 W. 13th Ave. could be a nice starter home or great investment opportunity. Not only is it in a transitional neighborhood but it is just one block from the Lakewood Gulch greenbelt, and a short walk from the Sheridan light rail station. Sloan’s Lake is just 4 blocks to the north. All appliances are included — even the washer and dryer. It has a reserved parking space and plenty of on-street guest parking. Act now -- this will probably sell quickly because it is the lowest priced 2-bedroom Denver condo currently on the market west of I-25. Take a narrated video tour at www.DenverCondo.info, then call Andrew Lesko of 720710-1000 for a private showing. Or come to the open house on Saturday, Aug. 4, 11 to 1. $238,500

Erik Newton found guilty of murder Life in prison for “Execution-style” killing near Arvada STAFF REPORT

CALM AFTER THE STORM

A Jefferson County jury deliberated four hours on July 17 before finding Erik Jamal Newton, 23, guilty of the murder of Zachary Greenstreet in June, 2016. On June 17, 2016 Newton shot and killed 29-year-old Greenstreet in his driveway as he returned home from his father’s house. He was shot six times at close range. Prosecutors described Newton this as an “executionstyle” killing. A year prior to the murder, Newton had posted inappropriate content on social media about Greenstreet’s girlfriend. Friends and family of the

SM

woman confronted Newton about the post and insults were exchanged. Newton was blocked and unfriended to prevent further contact on social media. There was no further contact of any kind between the parties until the murder. The jury heard testimony that Newton did not target Greenstreet, specifically, but that he went to the house in unincorporated Jefferson County outside Arvada expecting either Greenstreet, his girlfriend, or the girlfriend’s son to be there. Newton’s defense was that he had a mental condition which prevented him from deliberately committing the murder, despite the findings of a court appointed psychiatrist. Following his evaluation, the doctor testified that it was his conclusion that Newton was malingering (faking or exaggerating symptoms). The jury found Newton guilty of first degree murder and tampering with physical evidence. He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Michael Gowey, 36, pleaded guilty to one count of sexual exploitation of children before a Jefferson County judge July 26. Gowey was arrested on the charges filed by the First Judicial District in March and originally charged with nine counts of sexual exploitation of children after investigators found that he allegedly sent and received Gowey inappropriate images through a messaging app. As a result of his guilty plea, the other eight counts against him were dropped. Gowey worked as a firefighter with the Arvada Fire Protection District beginning in 2011. He was fired when

the district learned of the charges against him. According to the arrest affidavit, police in Nashville were investigating messages found on the computer messaging app Kik where an account under the name “Jen Thomas” with the screen name “softballgrl32,” talked about sexually abusing a sixyear-old and offered to send pictures in exchange for an Amazon gift card. The account, eventually traced to an IP address at Gowey’s Lakewood home, allegedly sent 14 pictures of the sexual abuse, and received one. After initially denying allegations against him, Gowey told to investigators that the used the Kik application to both send and receive sexually exploitative material, but continually denied that he ever touched a child or thought about touching a child, according to the arrest affidavit. As part of his plea, Gowey will be required to register as a sex offender. He is facing 4-12 years in prison. Sentencing is scheduled for Oct. 31.

Southwest end of Golden sees commercial growth Food, retail and now a hotel now grace far end of Colfax BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If Rob Tompkins could have his wish, Golden would go back to the way it was back in the 1970s. “I’m an old-school guy, so (any development) is always too much,” he said. “But as a business owner, it’s wonderful.” Tompkins opened Dirty Dogs Roadhouse, 17999 W. Colfax Ave., in Golden in October last year. But he has been a part of the Golden community since the 1970s and frequented the establishments that were formerly housed in the building where his classic biker bar and restaurant is today. “It’s a great setting here in the foothills,” Tompkins said. “A destination spot for motorcyclists going on a ride, or coming back from a ride, in the mountains.” Tompkins is not the only one who has recently recognized the opportunities that lie in the West Colfax corridor in Golden, from approximately its intersection with I-70 to its intersection with Heritage Road. Avalanche Harley-Davidson, Colorado’s largest vendor of the brand’s motorcycles boasting more than 500 new and pre-owned models in stock at any time, opened in October last year. Soon-to-come businesses include a hotel and restaurant, another dining establishment, a brewery and a coffee shop. And perhaps a bicycle rental shop, although that could not be confirmed by press time. “We’re creating a really cool pocket in a slightly underserved area,” said Chris Medved, a longtime Colorado resident and chef with 18 years of experience in the Denver area. Medved’s current role is executive chef and beverage manager for Origin Red Rocks and Nomad Taqueria and Beer Garden. Origin Red Rocks is a boutique hotel that will open on Aug. 10 at 18485 W. Colfax. Opening on the same day is the hotel’s inhouse restaurant, Nomad Taqueria and Beer Garden. The food scene in Golden is “really growing,” Medved said, pointing to a few locally-owned restaurants that recently opened in downtown Golden. “I see a lot of new places popping up, bringing some great food and dining experiences to Golden,” he said. “I’m excited to be a part of it.” According to local historian Rick Gardner, this stretch of West Colfax was built in 1937 and “developments began materializing” in the 1950s and `60s. The Sunmart gas station/ convenience store, 18561 US-40, and Metro Denver Self Storage, 18180 W. Colfax Ave., are two businesses that people attribute to “being there a long time.”

Ten years ago, Wrigley’s Chicago Sports Bar & Grill, 18200 W. Colfax Ave., opened. It’s notable for hosting “150 Bears fans that are here for every game,” states its website. A theme park at 18301 W. Colfax Ave. called Magic Mountain operated from 1957 to 1960. It reopened as Heritage Square in 1971. Heritage Square provided a draw to the corridor but in 2015 the property owner announced the square’s commercial portion would close. The alpine slide soon followed, and the square’s last surviving small business to close was Heritage Amusement Park, which ceased operations in June. Origin Hotels is a new collection of hotels created by The Thrash Group, a real estate development company based in Mississippi. Origin Red Rocks is the company’s debut hotel. “That stretch of Colfax has great visibility,” said Walker Thrash, a partner for Origin Hotels, along with his father Ike and brother Joe. “I’m impressed by the quality of developments on that strip alongside us.” Thrash noted the visibility was an attractive component for developing the hotel there. But along with that, Golden attracts a “dynamic” and “experience-driven” traveler, Thrash said. These include outdoor enthusiasts and those wanting to experience the small-town charm of the foothills communities, he said. In addition, the hotel formed a partnership with Red Rocks — a world-renowned amphitheater and 868 acres of parkland with trails, owned and operated by the City and County of Denver. It is about five miles away from Origin Red Rocks. Origin Red Rocks “remarkably enough fulfills an unrealized vision for the area,” Gardner said, “as the Magic Mountain Hotel was first thought of clear back in 1958 as a companion for the theme park. But it was never built.” With easy access to the mountains via I-70, nearby Apex Park and the Park and Ride’s Dinosaur Lots on U.S. Highway 40, it’s a unique and convenient spot for development, said Ashleigh Bilodeaux who grew up in Jeffco but now resides in San Francisco. Bilodeaux, along with family business partners — her brother Jason Bilodeaux and his wife Jessica of Golden — expects to open Over Yonder Brewing at 18455 W. Colfax Ave. in January. “Colorado is booming with growth,” Bilodeaux said. “It’s a beautiful place so it makes sense why people want to live there.” If all this development on this stretch of West Colfax included national chain businesses or big box retail, she said, perhaps the local community would have a different sentiment. But, “most of the businesses in the development are locally owned,” Bilodeaux said. And they’re businesses that “both the local community and visitors can enjoy.”

Local groups help refugees transition and thrive Jefferson Unitarian Church hosts event to learn how to get involved with helping Jeffco’s refugees BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Imagine moving somewhere and not knowing how to take public transportation, what the education system is like, where your neighborhood library is or how to shop at a local supermarket. These basic community assets come second nature to most Americans. But “if you come from somewhere else, you might have no idea about any of these things,” said Rachelle Trujillo, a volunteer with Jefferson Unitarian Church. Jefferson Unitarian Church, in partnership with International Rescue Committee (IRC), is hosting an event Aug. 5, for community members to learn how they can help locally-placed refugees integrate into the culture and community. The event also serves as a school supplies drive to benefit refugee youth heading back to school this fall. “The point is to lend a helping hand to families who have been persecuted in their home country,” Trujillo said. “Having support from the community is something that can make a huge difference in their success.”

FOR MORE INFO To learn more about IRC, visit www.rescue.org IRC is one of nine U.S. resettlement agencies that welcomes refugees to America. The Denver office, located in Lakewood, serves refugees, Special Immigrant Visa recipients, asylum-seekers and similar populations for up to five years after arrival. The group’s mission is “to help people whose lives and livelihoods have been shattered by conflict and disaster to survive, recover and regain control of their future,” said Jennifer Wilson, executive director of IRC Denver. A nonprofit, IRC helps refugees transition and thrive in the USA. Its programs include family stabilization, economic empowerment, digital literacy, health coordination and psychosocial support, among others. Where the local community comes in, Wilson said, is helping the refugees “feel welcome, connected to the community and at home in their new home. These individuals extend and enhance what we do.” After a while, she said, “refugees often refer to these community mem-

bers as their American family.” Since about 1980, more than 60,000 refugees have come to the Denvermetro area. About 100 have come to Jefferson County in the past two years, Wilson said. They come from Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Senegal, Ukraine, Somalia, Cuba and Iraq. “Refugees bring so much. They enrich us economically and socially,” Wilson said. “They come here with the same hopes and dreams as everyone else. They want to live in peace, give their children a good education, own a home, have a career.” Trujillo learned of IRC a while ago and became interested in getting more involved with the organization a couple months ago, she said, when a group of volunteers from Jefferson Unitarian Church put together home kits — cooking utensils, bathroom items, cleaning supplies — for new refugee arrivals. “I was really inspired and wanted to take it step further,” she said. This event will help spread the word about IRC’s needs and the challenges refugees face, and give everybody an opportunity to get involved, Trujillo said. “We have refugees here” in Jeffco,

IF YOU GO Welcoming Refugees: A partnership with International Rescue Committee (IRC) will take place at noon on Aug. 5 on the patio at Jefferson Unitarian Church, 14350 W. 32nd Ave., in Golden. IRC will present on the refugee crisis, keeping families together and how we can act locally. There will be opportunities to learn how to get involved through donation, volunteerism and/or advocacy. World entertainment and international finger food will be provided. The event is also doubling as a school supplies drive for local refugee children. If unable to attend the event, school supply donations may be dropped off at the church through August.

No registration or RSVP are necessary to attend the event. Additional questions on the event may be directed to Jefferson Unitarian Church at 303-279-5282. Trujillo said. “By supporting them, we can help them become a part of our community and contributing members of our society.”

Social media posts lands two Arvadans in conflict One fake political ad sparks two investigations

FACEBOOK POLITICAL AD TRANSPARENCY As a result of a Russian company inundating Facebook feeds with sponsored content during the 2016 election, Facebook has increased information about who paid for the ads, how much was spent on the ads and who those ads reached.

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Two investigations to determine if a crime has been committed are now underway concerning social media postings from Arvada residents. The first came when Arvada resident Katie Winner found a paid advertisement on the political Facebook page Joshua for Arvada, run by Joshua Jered Rodriguez, a candidate for the 2019 District 4 Arvada City Council race. The post appeared to be a share from Winner’s Facebook page that endorsed Rodriguez for the city council seat. However, Winner says she never wrote that post. “I never wrote those words about any candidate,” said Winner said, an active member of the Jeffco schools community who recently started her own company, a communications firm. “I would never write those words about Joshua Jered Rodriguez for Arvada City Council. My opinion is that the entire post is Photoshopped.” Rodriguez maintains he did not fabricate the post. “I believed it was a real post,” he said. Winner found the post, which ran as sponsored content on the Joshua for Arvada page July 2-3, while testing out Facebook’s new political content

feature — an effort to protect election security on Facebook. As a result, ads that have political content and have appeared on Facebook on or after May 7 now also appear in the archive of ads with political content. Winner said while checking the Joshua for Arvada page archive on July 15, she found the ad with her profile picture and “a glowing endorsement” attributed to her. Winner reported the ad to Facebook. In email communications, the company said it confirmed that Winner’s account had not been hacked, but that the company’s investigation was continuing.

In a July 16 post on Nextdoor.com, he wrote that a person he believed to be Winner contacted him saying she would stop the continued harassment for an amount of $500 and would post an endorsement on Facebook. Colorado Community Media requested screenshots of this offer, but Rodriguez said the message was no longer available because he reported it to Facebook. However, Facebook messages that are reported to the company do not seem to disappear as he described when Colorado Community Media tested the process. On Nextdoor.com, Rodriguez stated, “Under bad judgment I agreed and paid that amount and received an endorsement that I posted on Facebook. Katie Winner’s account was catfished.” But the story he told the Colorado Community Media on July 23 was different. “I did not pay,” he said, adding that he did agree to pay and as a sign of good faith, she posted the endorsement. “The person that contacted me was catfished, had a lot of information, or it was Katie Winner,” Rodriguez said. “I have to assume it was her.” When asked about Rodriguez’s assertion that she was harassing him online, Winner said she had conversed with him on Facebook and Nextdoor.com, but that in her opinion she was not bullying him. “Whenever Joshua Jered Rodriguez posted fake and false information about the city of Arvada, about Jeffco schools or the issues in the community, I confronted him with facts,” Winner said. “But I never debated the facts with

I just told him this is false information.” Two specific instances of this were Nextdoor.com posts about Arvada taxes in District 4 and a report on the Jeffco schools’ school safety task force, of which Rodriguez was a member. In the June thread about the school safety task force, Rodriguez posted “talking points” from the June 18 subcommittee meetings, which sparked concern from parents. In the thread, Winner pushed Rodriguez for more information on where his notes came from and his stance on the issues. She also directed community members to an online survey of the task force. “I take being an involved advocate importantly,” Winner said. “This is why I read the news. Newsrooms have standards. That’s why this is so important to me. This person is saying I’m not credible and not factual. I’m constantly redirecting people to first sources and citing news articles. I’m helping the community get facts and get information.” But Rodriguez said he perceived this as following him too intensely online. On July 20, he filed a complaint with the Arvada Police Department accusing Winners of cyberstalking. “Over the past six months, if I post something on Facebook or Nextdoor, she is there harassing me,” Rodriguez said. “I’m trying to (do my) best to contact people associated with her and point them toward the Arvada police.” The day after he filed his police report, Rodriguez contacted several of Winner’s contacts via Facebook Messenger urging them to stop association with her. The Arvada Press received one of these messages. “She is definitely stalking me,” Rodriguez said. “It’s going to be up to the Arvada Police Department to determine what is going on.” But Winner said that if anyone is being bullied, it is her. “All he has to say is he made a mistake,” Winner said. “He created something and paid for it as an ad and he just has to say ‘sorry’ and back out of the race. This individual has just made things a lot worse by attacking my business with slander and libel.” Although he has not officially withdrawn from the city council race — of which he is the only declared candidate at this time — Rodriguez said that he will be “stepping back” from politics. Both police reports are being investigated to determine whether a crime has been committed. Investigators will later determine if charges will be filed.

Signatures being checked for statewide school funding measure Initiative 93 could boost resources for education if it makes ballot BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Coloradans looking to bolster education funding throughout the state may be one step closer to their goal, as the Great Schools, Thriving Communities campaign turned in more than 170,000 signatures to the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office on July 11. The signatures provide support for placing Initiative 93 on the November ballot. The initiative would raise $1.6 billion for public education, mostly by an increase to the income tax of those making more than $150,000 a year and for “C” corporations — any

corporations that are taxed separately from their owners — getting Colorado closer to the national average in terms of education funding. Currently the state gives about $5 billion to school districts. For the past six months, volunteers throughout the state set out to collect 98,492 valid signatures in support of the ballot initiative. The number turned in exceeds that goal and the Secretary of State’s Office has 30 days to verify the signatures’ validity. The office must also verify that enough valid signatures came from each state Senate district — about 3,000 minimum from each of the 35 districts. “I am overly excited and so proud of all those people that have stepped up and done outstanding work,” said Donald Anderson, of Fort Collins. Anderson and Boulder resident Martha Olson are the proponents on the citizen document.

“I think the other thing in addition to the excitement of getting this far is to emphasis how crucial this is to Colorado schools,” Olson added. “The funding was cut in the recession and never recovered. This is the time.” The Great Schools, Thriving Communities campaign is made up of a coalition of education-connected organizations working to advance better and more equitable funding of public schools through a ballot initiative in 2018. Great Schools, Thriving Communities is based on three principles: Every student needs the opportunity to reach their full potential and to participate meaningfully in the civic and economic life of the community; the Colorado way of life should be about every student having the chance to succeed regardless of their zip code or their learning needs; and a strong economy requires quality public education as it develops a quality workforce that will drive a vibrant Colorado economy for decades to come. The new funding is aimed at making up for millions of dollars in lost funding over the past decade. The initiative Olson and Anderson found their path as education activists in different ways. Anderson, a stay-at-home dad, was volunteering at schools and got involved in the State Advisory Council for Parent Involvement in Education — which gave him a broader view of education in Colorado. “I’m very passionate about kids having the opportunities out there to be the best that they can be,” Anderson said. “I got started looking at the student view and the opportunities missed in Colorado.” For Olson, a former teacher and administrator, concerns about schools going to four days a week and the lack of ability to provide free full-day kindergarten made her take action. “Looking at youngest children, all the research says the sooner they can get into a rich learning environment the better,” Olson said. “If we want to close learning gaps we need to start young. And we don’t even provide a free kindergarten. We are handicapping a whole generation of young people. Sometimes I get worried that we don’t even know what we are doing by not funding our schools.” The initiative would address these shortfalls by providing an additional

$1,000 per child to each school district; providing for full-day kindergarten and increasing the amount of revenue going to early childhood education funding; expanding the definition of “at-risk” students to count free and reduced lunch kids; and increasing the amount of funds passing from the state to local districts for English-language learners, special education, and gifted and talented students. “Our initiative is about trying to solve a statewide funding issues to make sure all students are able to benefit,” said Susan Meek, a Douglas County resident and communications director for Great Education Colorado, a grassroots activism group aimed at stimulating wise investment in Colorado’s public schools, colleges, and universities. One way this initiative does that is by allowing each school district to determine how to spend the extra dollars in a way that benefits their community. For Bret Miles, who works with 12 school districts in the northeast corner of the state, this means looking at courses that have been cut, increased class sizes and decreased personnel due to decreased funding over the years. With districts ranging from 120 students in K-12 to 750 students throughout a district, the northeast corner is home to some of the smallest districts in the state. “Right away with this passing, each district will get to have a conversation about what we get to restore,” Miles said. “I think that’s really the beauty of this initiative. Each district gets to come up wth their own solution. Each community can sit down and say what is our need, our priority as a school district.” Miles said one area extra funds will go toward is increased salary for educators. “It’s no question,” he said. “In our neck of the woods we have such a tough time competing with the metro area with salaries. So that’s good for our teachers, prospective teachers, and the community, because instead of our teachers renting the tiniest house in town, they can buy.” But those in opposition to the initiative have doubts that the money collected from taxpayers will benefit students.

FUNDING FROM PAGE 10

“There’s also absolutely no evidence that this will improve Colorado schools,” said Linda Gorman, an economist with the Independence Institute, a libertarian think tank based in Denver. “All this money goes into an education slush fund and can be used for any purpose … There’s no guarantee that any of this money will be used to help the average students out.” In Jefferson County Public Schools, the second largest school district in the state and home to 86,000 students, the initiative would mean an additional $134.4 million a year for the district. This year Jeffco recived $353 million in state revenue. Superintendent Jason Glass said a portion of that would be designated toward salaries to attract and retain quality teachers. Glass said the district would also likely look at increased counseling services and programming that focuses on career and college readiness. Getting to the ballot But the road to the ballot has been more difficult than past initiatives. Amendment 71, which passed in 2016, calls for ballot initiatives in Colorado to turn in valid signatures representing 2 percent of voters from each of the 35 Colorado Senate districts. Initiative 93 is the first to attempt this higher standard. “It was called Raise the Bar, and it did,” said Lisa Weil, executive director of Great Education Colorado. “It

LOCAL IMPACT Jeffco Public Schools is given $61 million less in tax revenue funding in 2018-19, compared to 2009-10. The Great Schools, Thriving Communities measure would increase district funding an estimated $134.4 million increases the cost in time and funding significantly when you have to make sure you have valid signatures in very specific areas.” But Weil said there was an energy around the state that kept the momentum going. “It’s breathtaking how people stepped up,” Weil said. “Without the energy and commitment of people all around the state, it would have been impossible.” One Amendment 71 volunteer is Cathy Kipp, who serves on the school board in Fort Collins. Kipp personally collected more than 4,000 signatures in her area and in the Western Slope. “Funding is such a challenge,” Kipp said. “This actually gets something done. This makes change. To me, it’s incredibly important because everyone wants good schools, but nobody wants to pay for it.” The initiative also gained momentum in April when educators throughout the state and the nation were rallying at the Capitol for more funding. “That was very energizing — teachers willing to speak up and talk about the issues,” Anderson said. “All that gives me joy, but I’m also looking ahead and November is a ways away.”

St. Anthony receives heart association award STAFF REPORT

St. Anthony Hospital has received the 2018 Mission: Lifeline Gold Receiving Quality Achievement Award from the American Heart Association. The hospital is the only medical center in the state to receive the award, which highlights the hospital’s performance in treating patients with a ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) heart attack, the most life-threatening type of cardiac event and a leading cause of death among heart patients in the United States, according to a news release from St. Anthony Hospital. St. Anthony Hospital earned the award by meeting specific criteria and standards of performance for quick and appropriate treatment through emergency procedures to re-establish blood flow to blocked arteries in heart attack patients coming into the hospital directly or by transfer from another facility. This achievement recognizes medical centers that are successful in meeting and exceeding guideline therapy recommendations for treating such patients. “When it comes to treating cardiac emergencies, heart disease, and cardiac conditions, St. Anthony Hospital is the medical center of choice for more than 600 cardiac patients per year,”

Peter Powers, chief executive officer at St. Anthony Hospital, said in the news release. “Individuals know that when faced with a cardiac condition or emergency, St. Anthony Hospital offers a robust cardiovascular care program and has proven successful in not only meeting, but exceeding national quality standards and providing the best chances for recovery.” Every year, more than 250,000 individuals experience a STEMI, which is caused by a blockage of blood flow to the heart and requires timely treatment, the release said. To prevent death, it’s critical to restore blood flow as quickly as possible, either by mechanically opening the blocked vessel or by providing clot-busting medication. Research suggests that if the vessel is opened within the first few hours of the blockage, the patient will have a better chance of survival and less muscle damage. The American Heart Association’s Mission: Lifeline program is geared to reduce system barriers to prompt treatment for heart attacks, beginning with the emergency call, to EMS transport and continuing through hospital treatment and discharge. The initiative provides tools, training and other resources to support heart attack care following protocols from the most recent evidence-based treatment guidelines.

WHAT IT MEANS FOR TAXES The Great Schools, Thriving Communities ballot initiative seeks to increase state education funding by creating a quality public education fund financed through higher taxes on incomes above $150,000 and on “C” corporations.

State aims to bolster failing foster system Legislative reforms seek to provide greater stability for young people BY BRIAN EASON ASSOCIATED PRESS

Sweeping legislative reforms to Colorado’s troubled foster care program take effect in August with the goal of revamping a system where kids graduate from high school at lower rates than homeless children. Crafted with the help of foster parents as well as former foster kids who aged out of the system, the package of legislation aims to provide more stability for children, the majority of whom change schools at least once per year — to the detriment of their education.

Lawmakers say it’s among the most comprehensive package of reforms that has been attempted in the nation. And while foster care problems are pervasive across the U.S., Colorado’s system is particularly challenged. In 2017, less than one in four foster kids in Colorado graduated from high school in four years, according to the state Department of Education. That’s worse than the rate for homeless kids, who graduate at a 56 percent clip in Colorado. Nationally, around half of foster kids graduate on time. Reggie Bicha, executive director of the Colorado Department of Human Services, points to instability as a key driver of the broader challenges foster kids face. Around 55 percent of Colorado’s 6,500 foster children changed schools at least once last year. A

Denver Post investigation published this spring found that more than 1,500 foster kids “aged out” in the last five years — meaning they were emancipated without being adopted, reunified with a parent or set up with a legal guardian. Without a support system as they transition to adulthood, the Post found, these kids often wind up unemployed, homeless or in jail. “Too many kids are set up to age out of the system,” Bicha said. And “once you’re out, you’re always out,” he said, meaning those who find independence too challenging can’t go back for help. One bill set to become law in August will provide a mechanism for 18- to 21 year-olds to re-enter care after they have been emancipated. Another provides funding to implement a 2015 federal law aimed at providing kids with transportation

so they can stay in the same school, even if they move to a new district. It requires school districts and child welfare departments to work out the logistics. Lawmakers also passed a bill to allow foster parents to obtain medical and educational information for their foster child — records they can’t obtain today. “Imagine providing foster care to a 10-year-old, but being told you can’t get educational records, or can’t get medical records,” Bicha said. The administration, meanwhile, has committed to an ambitious goal of its own — recruiting enough new foster parents to close a projected shortfall of 1,200 caretakers within the next five years. Prospective foster parents and others who want to help can learn out more at co4kids. org.

The free, community wellness program, has been helping, and incentivizing, participants to achieve a healthy weight since 2011. In July, the program reached a new milestone, enrolling 100,000 Coloradans. “It’s great,” Michaels said. “I’ve got way more energy, my health improved and I’ve gotten off four medications. Which is a great thing.” Since joining the program 2011, Michaels has lost 125 pounds, bringing her to more than 200 pounds lost throughout her journey. For her, the most helpful aspect is the daily inspiration emails and the progression photos.

New participants can join for free at www. WeighandWin.com or at any of the 125 kiosk locations in Colorado.

plans to participants each month. “When we launched this program in 2011, we wanted to create an easy and approachable way for the Colorado community to interact with their health goals,” said Jandel Allen-Davis, MD, Kaiser Permanente Colorado vice president of government, external relations and research. “We had no idea it would reach this many people in more than 125 locations across the

state. We’re proud of this program and all the Coloradans who signed up and took control of their health.” The weigh-in kiosk creates a photo booth experience at the scale by taking a full body photo of the participant, in addition to a validated weight measurement. The kiosk aims to change the medical tone of weight loss to create a fun, encouraging environment while also providing personal motivation. “I really like that every time you weigh in they take your picture so they can see your progression online,” Michaels said. “It really helps me see the weight loss in perspective. It really is helpful and encouraging.” Michaels weights in monthly at the Apex Center in Arvada, where sure does her workouts. “I just think it’s great that Kaiser did this to help people get more healthy,” Michaels said. “It does cost anything and it’s so convenient.”

VOICES

Look, in a word, the deal is, arguably, pointless

ook, I want everyone to stop saying “look” like I just did, before making a statement. I hear it all the time now. It’s used this way, I’m guessing, to let your listeners know what you are about to say is momentous. If what you’re about to say is momentous, there is no need to preface it with an alert. Trust your momentousness. Words are my best friends, and I hate to see them gathered at the river and beaten with rocks until they have no coloring. Case No. 1: “Fake news.” Case No. 2: “Witch hunt.” Case No. 3: “Let me ask you

this.” And of course, no one owns a “hot water heater.” Newcomers to Colorado: you QUIET begin to hear DESPERATION will a word day and night, everywhere you go, like it or not. It is unavoidable: Don’t even try. It will come out of nowhere, and land on your mind. It’s this: “Broncos.” Craig Marshall It refers to the Smith

local National Football League team. The players behave like 5-year-olds at a clown party if they simply do what they are paid to do: Run five yards with the ball without falling down. But they are adored and revered, and papers and programs are full of them. If one of them buys a toothbrush, it’s a breaking story. You’ll get used to it. You won’t have a choice. I don’t give a Rick Upchurch about the Broncos, but they were here before I was, and that’s the way I have to look at it. SEE SMITH, P15

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thanks EPA! When I used to visit Colorado in the 1960’s and ‘70s, you could hardly see the mountains from Denver because of the brown cloud. By 1985 it was so much better! You could see the mountains most of the time, even in the winter. This was mainly due to the improved air emissions standards. Thanks, EPA! Unfortunately, the current government seems to be going backwards by eliminating clean air controls. And with more and more people moving here, air pollution will get much worse again unless we do something to prevent that. I am writing to urge support in Colorado for Governor Hickenlooper’s low emission vehicle goals for addressing climate change and air pollution. Federal rollback could increase carbon emissions in Colorado by 4.5 million tons per year. Smog-causing pollutants would increase by about 15 percent, raising ozone

and darkening the brown cloud. For the 343,000 people with asthma in Colorado, more air pollution means more wheezing, risk of infection, and permanent lung damage. The 2012 standards were to double fuel efficiency for cars and light trucks by 2025 — but the current administration plans to roll them back. The average Colorado household would have seen $2,700 in savings by 2030 — but these savings won’t happen unless we adopts the Advanced Clean Car standards.

Club sports might be clubbing the love out of the game

I

had an interesting online interaction the other day in regard to the World Cup. I know ... *another* soccer column. Anyway, there seems to be this narrative developing in certain circles that the French victory in Copa Mundial (soccer term! ... ish) is a tribute to the value of immigration. This, of course, based on the fact that five of the French starting eleven were immigrants or children of immigrants, as were large parts of the English and Belgian teams. In fact, immigrants from the region around Paris know as “Ile de France” (sounds a lot better than saying “the slums,” dontcha HITTING think?) account for two out of every three HOME professional soccer players from France, though the region only accounts for about 20 percent of the French population. This region is also known as “The 93,” which is shorthand for Department 93 of the French government’s 100 reMichael Alcorn gions, which is a dense concentration of the poorest neighborhoods in all of France, a Department which receives special government funding due to its economic distress. For me, those facts turn the discussion of the French success away from being one about immigration policy, and towards one of my oldest hobby horses: youth sports. My son plays competitive soccer, and, without giving you the details, I will tell you it is expensive. I have nieces who played competitive softball, and I can tell you it, too, is expensive. A buddy of mine has a child playing youth basketball — expensive. Youth football? Expensive. And don’t ever look into youth hockey if you don’t want to have a small stroke. My point with this is that, were all those immigrants, who are condensed into the poorest neighborhoods around Paris, in America, instead, they would not appreciably improve the American

he unusually high, nagging Colorado summer temperatures anglers find uncomfortable have an even more stressful impact on trout we pursue. The Colorado Parks & Wildlife (CPW) fishery staff is strongly urging anglers statewide to consider trout fishing early in the day and in higher mountain altitudes lakes and streams. The drought conditions Colorado is experiencing across our state is starting to take its toll on trout. Trout are considered a “cold” water species fish as opposed to

I simply don’t care for them. “Arguably” is one of them. It has no meaning. It’s the same as saying nothing. “Arguably” means you haven’t made a commitment to what you are saying.

soccer product, because they would not be able to afford to play for the competitive club teams. And, the way the culture of youth sports has developed, that probably means that they would not get to play for their high school teams, because many (not all) of the high schools work closely with the clubs to find their teams. It is so bad that, at one local high school, kids as early as age 10 know that if they aren’t on the “right” youth basketball team, they have almost zero chance of ever playing varsity basketball. Parents (including us) are starting to look at open enrollment for high school based on whether their kids are going to get a real chance to play. We have created an industry around youth sports, but, unlike other industries America created, it is one that is not working. The US Men’s National Soccer Team failed to even qualify for the Copa, for Pete’s sake! All these kids, with all these parents, shelling out all these bucks, and we can’t even manage to field the 32nd best soccer club in the world. And this is true of

The higher the water temperatures raise the greater the oxygen loss, which is the vital element of water conditions for trout. Unfortunately, lower river flows caused by drought periods not only create high risk condi-

At one time, Look was a magazine, along with Life and The Saturday Evening Post. I preferred The Saturday Evening Post because of the covers. Many of them were painted by the great Norman Rockwell. Rockwell was exceptionally talented. He was discredited by most Modern Art critics because his paintings were often overly sentimentalized. I overlooked it, and just studied his techniques, which were flawless. Illustration at one time was a top dog. I also admired Sir John Tenniel’s illustrations for “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.” Lewis Carroll vividly described Alice and the other characters; Tenniel vividly depicted them. Now we have computer graphics, and true illustrations are rarely needed.

other sports, as well, with the notable exception of women’s sports. But, in the end, it isn’t about winning, or beating up on the rest of the world. It’s actually just about the love of sport. Kids in the slums of Paris play great soccer because, if there’s one kid in the whole neighborhood who has a ball, they have a game, and they play for hours and hours every day. Without coaches. For the love of the game. Yes, eventually they find their ways into state-subsidized soccer “schools” where they become professionals, but that’s after they’ve already learned the game. Kids in America are being turned into cogs in an industry. Nobody plays for the love of it. When was the last time you saw a neighborhood park populated by kids playing a “pick up” game? Congratulations to the French. Maybe there is something we can learn from them. How about let’s start letting kids learn on their own for a while, for the Love of the Game.

These conditions can result in higher levels of water diversions for crops, thus compounding the lower stream flows and resulting higher water temperatures. Nehring encourages anglers to fish streams in the early morning hours and seek out high elevation lakes and streams where lower water temperatures prevail. Some normal fishing ethics can help struggling trout. Those include using barbless hooks, quickly releasing fish, keep fish submerged, keep your hands wet and cool when

You’ll find all of these displayed or explored at the “Play Ball!” exhibit at History Colorado Center. But the first thing you notice as you walk in, and which immediately gives you a sense of the sport’s humanity, is Babe Ruth’s palmprint — which may not be much larger than your own. “What this exhibition does really well is it has the pieces to get beyond just the player on the field and their heroics,” said Jason Hanson, chief creative officer of History Colorado Center. The display of the Bambino’s palmprint is just the first part of the story the exhibit sets out to tell: That baseball is ingrained in American culture, and it doesn’t take a superhuman to do superhuman things. The exhibit, said Hanson, is meant to educate people on the athlete’s place in history rather than just the stats on the back of their baseball card. Coloradans have less than two

Which meant when the City of Denver started working on compiling an album of some of its best performances, there was no way all COMING highlights ATTRACTIONS included. could be “We knew we weren’t going to get close to providing a good look at the breadth of artists and performances we’ve had over the years,” said Brian Kitts, Red Rocks spokesperson. Clarke Reader “What we tried to do was provide a taste of the many styles we’ve had here.” The end result is “Red Rocks Live,” a compilation three years in the making that features performances from 1978 to 2016. The three-LP limited edition vinyl collection is available at Red Rocks Trading Post and Visitor Center while supplies last. The album can also can be ordered on the Red Rocks website and is available in a digital format on iTunes, Amazon and other online outlets. As Kitts explained, staff had to consider factors like copyright and recording quality when considering songs to select. A big get, he said, was U2’s 1983 performance of “New Year’s Day” from its famous “Under a Blood Red Sky” performance. Other highlights include a 1978 performance of “Ship of Fools” by The Grateful Dead and a 2015 performance of “Grapevine Fires” by Death Cab for Cutie. “We also wanted to include local artists that have become Red Rocks favorites,” he added. “We made sure to include The Lumineers and The Fray in the track list because they’re so popular here.” Since there was no way to get everything into the album, Kitts said he hopes it serves more as a kind of sonic memory capsule than a historical record. “When people listen to the album, they might remember being at the show or have memories about seeing the artist perform,” he said. “Seeing a show at Red Rocks is always magic, and every show here is special.” To order the album online, visit www.RedRocksOnline.com.

The exhibit features artifacts from throughout the history of the game, including the nailed-together bat used by Cobb, San Francisco Giant outfielder Willy Mays’ glove and a hall of the game’s most iconic jerseys to take visitors through the evolution of the game. “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for baseball fans,” said Jason Hanson, chief creative officer of the History Colorado Center and longtime baseball fan. “You can make the pilgrimage to Cooperstown (to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum). But if you can’t do that this year, you will feel pretty satisfied if you can make it to downtown Denver. “You can start from something people already love and help them understand how it fits into bigger currents of American history, bigger currents of Colorado’s history — and that is a really effective way to help people appreciate our shared history ttogether,” Hanson added.

“At a time when America was in turmoil, baseball games crossed all socio-economic, ethnic and political barriers and always brought people together. It still does,” said Marshall Fogel, the lifelong Denver man and owner of the collection and Mantle card. “When I think about this Mickey Mantle baseball card, I hold this same nostalgic feeling.” The exhibit takes visitors on a journey of the game’s history and doesn’t finish without acknowledging the unsung stars of the Negro League or taking a look back at the history of the game in the Centennial State. Of course, there’s also a nod to the 2007 Colorado Rockies, who reached the World Series but were swept by the Boston Red Sox. “We hope that this exhibit helps people remember how much fun it is to ... hang out with friends and family and watch a baseball game,” Hanson said. There is, Fogel concurred, nothing better. “Baseball is the only sport of a singular hero – everything else is a team,” he said. “When you are a baseball player, you are up at the plate with nine enemies facing you, and when the ball comes at you in one-quarter of a second, it’s only you who can hit that ball.

Jeffo Fair & Festival offers fun new and repeat attractions Third annual event takes place Aug. 10-12 BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

From fans of rodeo to wrestling, those seeking family fun, foodies and homebrewers, 4-H supporters and livestock purchasers to live music lovers, this year’s Jeffco Fair & Festival will offer something for everyone. “This event is unique in that it caters to everyone,” said Dexter Foxworth, the director of Jeffco events and venues. “Seeing the community come together is the most exciting thing overall.” The annual Jeffco Fair & Festival was revamped in 2016 through a community engagement process and “built off previous fairs and festivals held throughout Jefferson County history,” states its website. Since the beginning, it’s been important to learn what the community wants in its annual celebration, Foxworth said. And organizers still welcome feedback, he added. “We’ve learned year after year that we have to continue to do that,” Foxworth said, because “it is a uniquely Jefferson County event, built by the community for the community.” If you go… The third annual Jeffco Fair & Festival takes place Aug. 10-12 at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds, 15200 W. Sixth Ave., in Golden. General admission is $5 for ages 13 and up and free for children ages 12 and under. Some special events or attractions require additional ticket purchases. Check the website for limited-time early or online ticket purchase discounts. To learn more about the annual Jeffco Fair & Festival, go to www. celebratejeffco.com.

Learning life lessons through horses and friendships Westernaires accepting applications to join youth equestrian organization BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Being in the Westernaires isn’t just about learning the art of horsemanship. Westernaires learn life lessons that they take with them as they age to adults and beyond — discipline, teamwork, responsibility, self-confidence, leadership. “They’re challenged, but there’s lots of benefits,” said Jerry Bauer, an alumnus who has been involved with the group as an adult volunteer for more than 20 years. “They get the chance to be kids and have fun in a structured environment.” The Westernaires, a nonprofit volunteer-run youth equestrian organization, is accepting applications for its annual new member registration for youth ages 9-14. Deadline to apply is Aug. 24 in order to attend the kickoff meeting that evening. Previous experience with horses is not necessary — all youth enter as a Tenderfoot, no matter his or her competence level with horses — and receive progressive training throughout their time with the Westernaires.

As a Tenderfoot, youth learn safety and other horse care skills. As they as advance through the years, they will learn to ride and eventually, specialty acts such as trick riding, mounted precision drills, vaulting and/or roman riding, for example. Tenderfoot is the hardest year, said Morgan Young, 15, of Littleton who has been involved with Westernaires for six years. “It’s the learning curve,” she said. “But eventually you get hooked and all the years after that become more and more fun.” Westernaires has about 300-400 volunteers and instructors. Along with the mounted riding, other special talents the youth can learn include trick roping, chariot-driving or bullwhipcracking. The Westernaires celebrates Western heritage, and this training is unique in that the specialty skills the youth can participate in may not be easily found elsewhere, said alumna and current adult volunteer Karen Kronauge. “Some of these skills are dying arts,” she said. “This is one of those rare places where we have lots of experts who are willing to share their knowledge.” All youth graduate from Westernaires when they graduate from high school.

HORSES FROM PAGE 19

Megan Kirstein, 18, of Littleton has been with Westernaires for five years and will graduate this October. “It’s helped me grow as a person,” Kirstein said, adding one makes a lot of friends through the organization. Kirstein will start college soon but will stay local and hopes to continue riding horses and stay involved with the Westernaires. “It’s always cute seeing the younger kids as they enter in their first year,” Kirstein said, “and watch them grow. By the end, they love it.” Currently, there are about 1,000 youth involved with the Westernaires. The organization accepts about 250 new members each year. Annual dues are $30 for the year, which goes toward maintenance and utilities for the facilities, located adjacent to the Jefferson County Fairgrounds, 15200 W. Sixth Ave., in Golden. Additional fees include purchasing the Westernaire practice uniform, and for some, may include costume purchases and horse rental. Because most of the youth riders in the program do not own a horse, the organization has about 200 horses that are available for rental for $15 per class. Lucas Cook of Evergreen has been in Westernaires for five years and his favorite horse to work with is one owned by the Westernaires named Nugget. “You know how with animals, you can just form a connection with them?” Cook, 11, said. “Nugget knows when I’m sad or happy. Actually, any mood you can think of. And I know his moods. We have history together.”

The end result, he added, is that the youths’ performances are just as good, if not better, than any professional out there. “They will literally blow your mind,” Bauer said.

adies and gentlemen and children of all ages, the circus is coming to town! Those words are rarely heard since Ringling Brothers and other touring circuses have shut down. Fortunately for Colorado circus-lovers, in August the Zoppé Family Circus will perform during the annual Carnation Festival under their Big Top Veneto. (Veneto is what this sixth generation of the Zoppé Circus Family christened their big top tent, in honor of the Italian town from which the family hails.)

“This is not an act you can see in America today,” says Zoppé.

A favorite among Carnation Festival-goers, Zoppé Circus is celebrating the 176th year of their family-run extravaganza. Among the 54 individuals who make up the company coming to Wheat Ridge are 10 blood relatives of the Zoppé family. “We are the classic circus in America today,” said Giovanni Zoppé, who runs the thrilling show. “We’re a complete circus, but we are what a circus was in the 1800s. That goes along with the costumes, music, and style of show. Everything we do takes you back to the 1800s.”

Admission to the general Carnation Festival is free, as is entry to a variety of concerts. Tickets for each circus performance are $15 for general admission (bleacher seating), $20 for VIP (chair seating) and free for children two and under. The shows sell out quickly, so it’s a good idea to purchase your tickets soon.

Zoppé likens the circus to Christmas. Just as Christmas comes every year, with different

Among the new acts is a bareback-riding performance by Zoppé’s sister Tosca, who has been an amazing bareback rider since she was young. She will re-create their father’s classic bareback riding act. Another new act features fourto-five horses abreast, with a human pyramid of six-to-eight people atop them.

The circus also will introduce an act this year that features a bicyclist riding around a large bowl-shaped apparatus. The equipment is 15 feet at the top and 10 feet at the bottom. As the bicyclist rides, the bowl goes up about 35 feet and continues to move. The “bowl” has a large hole in the middle of the bottom. Zoppé explains that this riveting act, which is 120 years old, has not been performed in at least 65 years. He felt it was time to introduce the act to modern-day circus-goers.

A History of the Carnation: the Festival, the Flower and the Farmers Every August in Wheat Ridge there’s a community shindig for a few thousand of the city’s closest friends. The party, the Wheat Ridge Carnation Festival, is nearing the half-century mark and is one of the longest running events in Colorado. The festival, set for August 10-12, in Anderson Park at 44th and Field, derives its name from the post-World War II period when Wheat Ridge was home to a thriving carnation industry. The last carnation grower in Wheat Ridge phased out their operation in 2008. The event has changed and grown, but has always been a free, locally-driven and family-friendly event. In 2017, there were over 30,000 attendees at Anderson Park. Now a three-day festival, it attracts residents and visitors from around the state. The festival has been a long-time of supporter of many local Wheat Ridge-focused nonprofits and service clubs, as well as student and senior organizations. All monies generated by the festival go to these local entities or back into the costs of the festival itself. The festival is a registered nonprofit and is managed by a board of Wheat Ridge volunteers. The city of Wheat Ridge was incorporated and officially become a city on Aug. 15, 1969. In honor of the city’s birthday, the area’s agricultural history (the Wheat Ridge High School sports teams are named the Farmers) and carnation production, a festival was born.

The carnation flower has its own lengthy history. The scientific/Latin name is Dianthus Caryophyllus, which translates into Flower of Zeus or Flower of the Gods. The carnation is one of the world’s oldest cultivars. It’s first mentioned in ancient Greek literature as growing on hillsides. Colorado’s abundant sunshine makes for a near-perfect place to grow carnations since the blooms need ample

Car Show Comes Roaring Back, August 12, 9am-3pm Classic car owners and enthusiasts are really tuning up for the 2018 Wheat Ridge Carnation Festival because this year the Wheat Ridge High School Farmers Football and the WR Quarterback Club are partnering with the Carnation Festival for the first time to present the “Big Wheels on the Farm” car show fundraiser. The beautiful vehicles will roll in (loudly) on Sunday, August 12th, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Anderson Park (44th and Field St.) The display will showcase decades worth of American muscle, hotrods, exotics, classics and vintage vehicles--all parked in the grassy area in the heart of festivities, surrounded by food trucks, vendors, the main stage and more. It’s a perfect combination for a day of family fun, while helping raise money for the high school football team. (Registration fees support the program). There will be plenty to gawk over during contests among the different car clas-

sifications. To maintain the festival’s community spirit, the judging will be done by Wheat Ridge Community Service Members. Custom-made trophies will be awarded in multiple categories including one for each car class, and a Best of Show Award. Do you have a specialty car that you would like to show off at the expanded car show this year? Entries are still open. Please complete the form on the Wheat Ridge Carnation Festival website (thecarnationfestival.com) to submit. After registering and paying, the Big Wheels on the Farm committee will contact you with more details. The $30 registration fee is non-refundable. The first 50 cars pre-registered will receive a dash placard. Wheat Ridge High School Football prides itself in giving back to the community and looks forward to the community enjoying extraordinary cars at the Big Wheels on the Farm car show.

AUTO

Whatever the classic/vintage car type, this show is sure to have a category for it. This year’s categories are: 1.Trick Truck

6.Air-cooled VW/Porsche

2.Pre-war (1940 and older) hot rod

7.Best of Show

3.Post-war (1941 – 1972) hot rod

sunlight. Wheat Ridge is close to Denver and provided the needed space for greenhouses. In the 1960s the city had 32 different carnation growers and sent flowers to the White House every Monday morning. The bouquet was displayed in the front foyer with a card stating: “With compliments to our nation’s capital, Wheat Ridge Colorado, Carnation City,” according to the Wheat Ridge Historical Society. The city’s moniker as being the “Carnation City,” prompted a group of people to organize an official agricultural and floricultural weekend celebration. Thus, the Carnation Festival and Parade become an annual tradition, first held on 38th Avenue. The parade remains on 38th Avenue, (with a brief hiatus to 44th Avenue at one point.) Over the years, the parade has featured floats with mounds of carnations from the local growers. The greenhouses are gone, but the connections to the past remain. The world now receives its carnations primarily from South America. The festival itself has had a few sites since the beginning, until finding its present home at Anderson Park. Like so many traditions, occasions and festivals, finding the exact origins of the festival and historical specifics are as steeped in unknowns as the carnation flower itself. Many of the city’s founders and festival originators have passed but their legacy continues.

Carnation Parade Celebrates “Deep Roots – Short Commutes” “Everybody loves a parade” and there are many beloved and famous parades to celebrate in U.S. history. The top four include the first St. Patrick’s Day parade in 1762, the first Mardi Gras Parade in 1856, the first Tournament of Rose Parade in 1890 and the inaugural Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in 1924. First held in 1969, to commemorate the year of our city’s founding, the theme for this year’s Carnation Festival Parade is “Deep Roots – Short Commutes.” Chaired by District IV City Councilmember Leah Dozeman, assisted by Festival Board Member Ruth Baranowski, the parade functions as one of the most visible ways the city honors service groups; local schools and businesses; the fire and police departments; state and national politicians and political candidates; and church groups and hobby clubs, including auto, horseback riding, biking, walking, martial arts, cheerleading and dance. The parade also honors distinguished residents by selecting a Grand Marshal, Count and Countess, who serve as royalty and ride in the parade. Optimist Ron Benson will be one of possibly multiple Parade Announcers. Engaging residents in all aspects of the parade is a main goal of the 2018 parade. Community groups and individuals, who want to secure one of 80 maximum spots, need to register online by Wednesday, July 25th. This year, the following parade application fees have been implemented: $45 for Wheat Ridge businesses; $50 for businesses outside Wheat Ridge; and $150 for politicians and political candi-

dates. Also, a late fee will be charged for applications received after Friday, July 27th . On the day of the parade, two resident judges will randomly select three attendees from the crowd to help judge the winning entries in the categories of Best Marching Band, Marching Unit, Musical Group, Business, Vehicle and Float as well as Most Creative and a Community Award. Commemorative plates, featuring a local artist’s design, will be awarded to the parade category winners. The winners of the commemorative plate competition were 1st place: Wilma Knies for “Wheat Ridge Farmers Market”, 2nd place: Ruth Baranowski for “A Different Type of Gold” and 3rd place: Zachary Urban for “Rooting for Wheat Ridge”. The parade application can be found on the homepage of TheCarnationFestival.com. Parade winners, royalty, the city and the Carnation Festival board will be honored at the Awards Ceremony on Saturday, August 11th. The parade runs Saturday morning from 9:30 am to 11:30 am. With staging from Ames to Depew Streets, the parade route continues to Upham Street along West 38th Avenue. Dominick Breton and the Grange board will serve a $7-donation Pancake Breakfast at The Grange from 7 am to 9 am. Parking is available in front of Wheat Ridge Cyclery, at Stevens Elementary and along the side streets of the parade route. The Festival Board welcomes everyone in the community and surrounding communities to join in the celebration of Wheat Ridge.

Bigger and Better: Carnival and Fireworks This year’s Carnation Festival carnival, spreading across the south side of Anderson Park, will have more favorite carnival games and rides than ever. Of course, there will be endless concessions with funnel cakes, corn dogs, cotton candy and other classic carnival foods. Carnival rides vary from $1 to $5, but an unlimited daily pass is available for $20. Parents always enjoy watching children rush onto a ride and climb off laughing. If the next words they hear are, “Can we go again? Please, please?” purchasing a wristband allowing a day of endless rides might be a great choice. The fireworks show at this year’s 49th Carnation Festival will be bigger and better. Both Friday and Saturday nights at 9:15 p.m., two graduates of Wheat Ridge High School will orchestrate an amazing fireworks show. Two days before the festival, Steve Shriber and Jeff Hendricks

of Firestorm Pyrotechnics will bring the fireworks over Loveland Pass, because a semi-truck full of fireworks can’t go through the tunnel. When Shriber was growing up in Wheat Ridge, he loved every fireworks show. Eventually, he began saving his money and driving to Wyoming to buy fireworks – a lot of fireworks. He then returned to Wheat Ridge and sold fireworks to his friends. After years in school and in the aerospace industry, Shriber and Hendricks began Firestorm Pyrotechnics in Springville, Utah. Firestorm Pyrotechnics produces choreographed shows combining music and fireworks. The timing and matching of music and multifaceted fireworks displays are what draws the ooohs and aaahs at every show. There will certainly be food, fireworks, and fun that all can enjoy at the 49th Carnation Festival!

Student Garden Bench Auction and Student Art Show Return The Student Garden Art Bench Auction and Student Art Show will again be part of the Carnation Festival. Volunteers will transport the benches to the festival grounds on Thursday afternoon, arrange them for display and set up bidding sheets. The benches will be displayed in the large tent to the west of the circus tent. New for 2018 is a design which converts the garden benches into small picnic tables. The benches were built and design by the Career Explore Construction Pathways class at Wheat Ridge High School under the instruction of Jane Johnson. The benches are special in their own right, but Wheat Ridge schools have taken it a step further. After being coated with a layer of protective paint, the benches are painted by school art departments in the Wheat Ridge area. Each one is

as unique as the students who built and created it. Better yet, the proceeds go to a great cause - right back to the art programs of the schools. The bidding opens on Friday 4:30 to 8 p.m, and continues Saturday 4:30 to 8 p.m. The highest bid on each bench wins and proceeds go directly to each school’s art department. The Student Art Show runs concurrently with the three-day Carnation Festival Art League Exhibition, inside the Anderson Building. Exhibition times are Friday, Aug. 10, 4 to 10 p.m.; Saturday, Aug. 11, noon to 10 p.m.; and Sunday, Aug. 12, noon to 4 p.m. While bidding on the benches or enjoying the art show, be sure to enjoy the demonstrations by various artists from the Wheat Ridge Art League, which will continue throughout the festival.

Variety is the spice of the weekend concert lineup From Kiss to country, and everything in between

By Peter Jones One never really knows what they are going to hear at Wheat Ridge’s Carnation Festival. “When I told the board members we’re going to have a Kiss tribute band, I got some sideways looks. It’s a spectacle to be sure,” said Joe Demott, the Carnation Festival board chair who books most of the acts for the city’s three-day signature jubilee. Although “something for everyone” is perhaps the longeststanding hyperbole in the history of show business, this festival really means it, with a total of 11 bands representing everything from turbo-charged Celtic folk to straight-ahead Chicago blues. While the 49th celebration of all-things Wheat Ridge also

boasts a parade, a circus, fireworks and a car show, to name a few attractions, the live music has taken on a life of its own in these modern worlds of social media and traveling self-contained band audiences. “We’re really highlighting the music as an event itself,” Demott said. For example, while platoons of the Kiss Army will most certainly invade Anderson Park for Kissm [with accompanying face painters at the ready], the easygoing hacky-sack set may be just as populous for Thin Air, a jam-band tribute to Widespread Panic. More than 20,000 people—music lovers and others—from across metro Denver will attend the festival over the course of

the weekend, Demott estimates. A major attraction this year will be Saturday’s headliner, the John King Band, direct from Georgia, the only non-Colorado act on the schedule. King, whose biggest hit, “Tonight, Tonight,” has been a fixture on country radio, will bookend his sets with one of two fireworks shows. Another country act, Colorado’s Matt Buckstein of American Idol fame, will light similar honors on Friday. “You usually get that huge mass exodus after the fireworks with most of the families, so hopefully that will kind of keep a few people there and quell that traffic,” Demott said. The Wheat Ridge Rotary, Kiwanis and Optimist clubs will be selling the beer.

Congratulations 2018 Carnation Festival Royalty

Every year the Wheat Ridge Carnation Festival chooses a royal court, which honors those in the community who have made a positive contribution through their active participation or service in the city. Nominees for the court are made by the community. The three members chosen for the court may be individuals or an organization that embody the best of the community and have earned recognition and the royal treatment. Courtly duties include such responsibilities as public appearances (riding in the parade on Saturday morning and festival award presentations Saturday evening) and moving about the festival looking royal while wearing a sash.

SCL LUTHERAN MEDICAL CENTER/ LUTHERAN MEDICAL CENTER FOUNDATION Lutheran Medical Center (LMC) has been an integral part of the community for more than 100 years. The hospital has received numerous awards for excellence in healthcare, including being named as one of America’s top 100 hospitals (2014-2017) and made the list of America’s best 50 hospitals in 2018, rated by Healthgrades. In 1905 at the LMC site, the Evangelical Lutheran Sanitarium was founded by the members of St. John’s Lutheran Church of Denver. The original facility on the 20-acre property had two buildings and a tent colony to treat tuberculous patients. “As medical advances diminished the demand for tuberculosis treatment, community leaders decided the center should meet a new need. Lutheran Hospital, a not-for-profit general medical facility located on a 100-acre campus, opened its doors in 1961,” according to the LMC website. Presently, the hospital serves the community with inpatient and outpatient care and their many healthcare services for all ages. In 2017, the LMC recorded its aid and attendance at 2,295 births. LMC is Wheat Ridge’s largest employer with 4,000 employees. The ability for the hospital to continue to operate and grow comes from its own community of doctors, nurses, staff, volunteers--and the work of the LMC Foundation’s fund-raising activities. In 2017, the foundation helped create more than a million-dollars-worth of healthcare support for LMC facilities and its various programs. Lutheran Medical Center Foundation is the 501(c)(3) public nonprofit organization that obtains support for the not-for-profit hospital and its associated services. “We are absolutely honored that Wheat Ridge has chosen us, “said Kathie Repola, executive director the LMC Foundation. “We are very thankful for how Wheat Ridge supports us. “

Griff Wirth, past principal of Wheat Ridge High School (WRHS) from 2007 to 2017. He has been a principal at Bell and Drake Middle Schools--and has been part of the Jefferson County School System for 23 years. In his retirement, he is an educational consultant and has helped start Career Explorer programs, in eight Jefferson County schools which he helped originate first at WRHS. Education has been and remains a central component from his early years and lasting through the present. Wirth graduated from WRHS in 1981. While in high school he received the Gold Helmet as Colorado’s outstanding scholar/football player/community service student, joining notable Freddie Steinmark recipient. Wirth’s family moved to Colorado when he was six years old. They relocated to the Applewood area for his father’s new job as an engineer with Coors Ceramic in Golden. He and his wife, Cindy, bought and now live in the house he grew up in. Their three children all graduated from WRHS. After graduating from WRHS, he went to college at Colorado University in Boulder, where he majored in math and education. He later obtained his master’s in administration from Colorado University at Denver. His first job as an educator was as a math teacher and coach in the Widefield School District in Colorado Springs. Some of his personal points of pride as principal of WRHS are his involvement in creating innovative programs, such as the Career Explorer, STEM and Jeffco GT Center-and leading a staff focused on positive traits in character development. “It’s really nice that the people have recognized me,” said Wirth. “Wheat Ridge is a welcoming and friendly community. Thank you, everyone.”

Dr. Amanda Weaver owns Five Fridges Farm in Wheat Ridge, a 13-acre organic urban farm that provides products, education and tours related primarily to small-scale food production. The land has had a voluntary conservation easement since the early 1990s. Although Weaver owns the land it must remain a farm and is protected legally as open space through the non-profit Colorado Open Lands. Long before moving to Colorado in 2002 and acquiring the farm in 2011, Weaver spent her childhood summers in Colorado with her maternal grandparents. Her grandfather was a Forrest Service scientist. Her interests in land, food, people and the vital connections between them began in those early years. The farm was originally owned by Earnestine and Walt Williams from the 1930ss to the mid 1990s. It was then owned by one of Wheat Ridge’s founders, Louise Turner. Weaver apprenticed under Turner in 2010. The connections to farm maintenance stems from its relationship with its volunteers, apprentices, coop members, visitors, seasonal growers leasing the land, and others with ties to the property. As a further commitment to sustainability and educating new farmers, Five Fridges Farm now offers an urban farming apprenticeship program in February through November. Weaver holds a PhD and teaches geography and urban farming at the University of Colorado at Denver. The farm often serves as her classroom and research laboratory. She is the District III representative on the Wheat Ridge Planning Commission and a Board Member for Colorado Open Lands. “I love Wheat Ridge,” said Weaver. “I’m really honored. I’ve never won anything like this in my life.” For further information about Five Fridges Farm go to 5fridgesfarm.com

Preseason quiet: all teams still equal

Area club team takes a national title Real Colorado Edge under 16 girls team tops July 24 tournament

The Real Colorado Edge Select ’02 girls under-16 soccer team were runnersup in their regional tourney, but took the top spot when it mattered most.

BY GLENN WALLACE GWALLACE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

For the girls of the Real Colorado Edge under-16 club soccer team, just gathering for practice in Wheat Ridge can be a chore since they hail from 11 different high schools. While the team is no stranger to traveling across the country to compete, on July 24 they only had to make the drive to Aurora to play for a national title, which they won. “At the very end of the championship game and the whistle blew, when I knew we had done it,” said Kaylyn Buchanan, 16, when asked what her favorite moment of the US Club Soccer National Cup Championship tourney was. The team, actually a combination of two club teams that include players from Arvada, Golden, Lakewood, Broomfield, Wheat Ridge, Westminster and even Boulder, made it into the tournament as a wild card selection. Once on the field however, there was little doubt Real Colorado was the real deal, scoring 13 goals and only allowing 2 in throughout the tourney. The team beat out opposing squads from Washington state, New York, Ohio and New Jersey on the way to the national title. A center forward, Buchanan is entering her junior year at Lakewood High School. While she scored six of the team’s goals in the tourney,

she said credit for the team’s success really stared with Real Colorado’s back line of defenders who shut down many attacks and won many of the contested balls to set up her attacks. “it was a big learning experience that we can do this, we’re good enough to beat these teams,” said Buchanan about the tourney win, which marks the first national title for the Real Colorado Edge club organization. Fellow forward Casia Provencal, who is an incoming freshman for Ralston Valley, said it was gratifying to have the team’s hard work pay off. “We really didn’t take a summer break, it was soccer, soccer, soccer.” Coach Ryan Henkel said that often club teams take off a few weeks in the summer, but this year the girls voted to compete in the tournament instead. He said it was gratifying to see the combined team come together and “start clicking at the right time.”

“We’re a club that prides itself on playing a style that you would recognize,” Henkel said. That Real Colorado soccer club style? “We want to own the ball. Ne fierce ball winners. Attack with numbers,” said Henkel, which he said helps to explain how his team scored so many goals and won the tourney. Though, he admits, “let’s not forget that altitude was at play too.” The club will play in several area tournaments in the coming weeks, so the awards and accolades for the newly crowned national champs may not be over. Then in a few months, most of the girls will be changing jerseys to play for their high school squads, perhaps on the opposite side of the ball. For now though, the girls can celebrate making club history. “I’m so thankful for everybody who was there supporting us,” Provencal said. “Each and every player put their heart and soul into this.”

arly August is an enjoyable couple weeks for those athletes that have spent time all summer preparing for the upcoming fall sports seasons. It is a tranquil time because everybody and every team is equal. No team or OVERTIME individual has lost and nobody has won. All the preseason prognostications are just speculative based mostly on last season’s observations. Still, everybody likes to read Jim Benton about preseason rankings, and it appears Mountain Vista’s cross country teams will once again be good after the Golden Eagles swept the Class 5A state championships last year. Mile Split recently ranked the nation’s top girls and boys 5K cross country teams for the upcoming 2018 fall season based on times of the top-returning runners from 2017. Mountain Vista’s girls were ranked third in the nation behind Wayzata (Minnesota) and Jesuit (Oregon). The average time of five Golden Eagles returning runners (Jenna Fitzsimmons, Caroline Eck, Sarah O’Sullivan, Madison Reed and Makenna Anderson) was 17:59.20. Wayzata’s average time of returning runners was 17:46.19 and Jesuit’s average was 17:57.90. Fitzsimmons captured last season’s Class 5A individual girls championship, Eck was second and O’Sullivan was sixth. Fitzsimmons and O’Sullivan will be juniors this fall and Eck a senior. Battle Mountain’s girls were 18th in the 5K rankings and Valor Christian’s returning runners were 41st with an average time of 18:48.44 for returnees Riley Irwin, Keely Jones, Taylor Whitfield, Kindyll Wetta and Emma Sees. Mountain Vista’s boys were ranked 48th in the country with an average time of 16:18.00 in the 5K division with Ethan Rouse, Jack O’Sullivan, Brody Dempsey, Seth Rouse and Aaron Hart listed as underclassmen last season. Durango’s boys were 28th. SEE BENTON, P35
