MY NAME IS

EMILY POWERS

Yoga instructor, marathon runner

Making people’s days better I’m 32. I started practicing yoga when I was 16. I convinced my high school to give me gym credit for taking classes at a local yoga studio. It was an incredible way to stretch and move that I’d never known about before, and helped me find more balance — figurative and literal — at an influential time in my life. I taught my first class when I was 18 and became certified to teach in 2010. I own two businesses in Wheat Ridge — a yoga studio called hOMe Yoga Studio and a private practice called Wolfsong Wellbeing for massage therapy and craniosacral therapy. The most rewarding part about my career is knowing that I am helping to improve my students’ and clients’ health and self-awareness. My job is to make people’s days better, help them feel better, and allow them to leave in a much better state than when they arrived for class or for a session. It’s incredibly humbling to be able to serve others in this way.

Fiddling around I really love bluegrass music. I’m slowly but surely learning how to play the fiddle. I was given my great uncle’s fiddle that was passed down in my family. I can’t read sheet music well, so it’s a really fun challenge to learn fiddle tunes by ear and play along to some of my favorite songs — albeit slowly. A nice pace of life I grew up in Boston. I visited Colorado when I was a junior in high school and knew I wanted to come back. So I moved to Colorado in 2003 to attend college at CU Boulder. I enjoy the pace of life here and the like-minded people who enjoy the outdoors and being active. My partner Adam and I both work a lot, but we go camping as often as we can. I also enjoy backpacking, hiking and skiing. Right now, Adam and I are training for a marathon. We will be traveling to Ireland this October to run in the Dublin Marathon. This will be my third marathon and Adam’s 10th. It’s a great personal challenge and a way to enjoy the outdoors and be healthy. For me, it’s a moving meditation.

Social media posts decry shooting of bear and cubs Wildlife officials respond to hikers’ report of bear’s aggressive behavior BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A post on Nextdoor.com about a black bear and two cubs recently shot and killed by a Colorado Parks and Wildlife officer for aggressive behavior toward humans has spurred an outcry on social media among Golden-area residents. “We moved to Golden from Denver to be close to wildlife and trails,” one of about 50 commenters posted, “and this is not the way we should be treating our animal friends.” Another post read: “Living around beautiful wildlife is why we choose to live in the mountains. This bear has been around without any trouble and I am sad that such extreme measures were used and equally sad about the way the bear encounter was reported.” But the two hikers who encountered the mother bear and her two cubs at about 6:15 p.m. said the mother bear charged at them repeatedly. The hikers, who had two dogs with them on short leashes, encountered the bears on the Enchanted Forest Trail in Apex Park. Apex Park is a Jefferson County Open Space park that has an

The hikers reported the incident to the Colorado State Patrol, which then dispatched Colorado Parks and Wildlife. They told the parks and wildlife officer the bear had charged at them several times, said Jennifer Churchill, public information officer for the northeast region of Colorado Parks and Wildlife. They tried unsuccessfully to discourage the bear, Churchill said, which included blowing whistles, hiding behind a tree and spraying the bear with pepper spray. But the bear continued to charge and at one point came as close as one foot away, Churchill said. “This bear was being aggressive,” Churchill said. Agency policy is to put down an animal that is being aggressive towards humans, she said. The cubs also were put down out of concern they had already learned aggressive behavior from their mother, Churchill said. “It’s a sad day when we have to put down aggressive animals, especially

young wildlife,” Northeast Regional Manager Mark Leslie stated in a media release. “We realize the sensitivity of citizens to young animals being put down and understand the frustration people feel. However, we would not be fulfilling our primary goal of public safety if we allow aggressive wildlife to remain on a popular trail so close to humans.” Sergey Ilyuskin, who lives in Golden and has hiked Apex Park on a regular basis for about seven years, is familiar with the bear and the two cubs. He said he had three encounters with them over the three weeks before their deaths. The first and third times, Ilyuskin said, cyclists on the trail warned him they had spotted the bear and her cubs. To avoid them, Ilyuskin went in a different direction. The second time, Ilyuskin came upon a biker stopped on the side

of the trail, who pointed to the bear. “She was probably 20 meters from us,” he said. “She was eating berries, looked at us several times and then walked away.” Ilyuskin said that all three times, nobody mentioned aggressive behavior from the bear. “They were just there eating — they wouldn’t disturb anyone,” he said. “I don’t know how this whole thing could’ve happened.” In certain cases, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will tranquilize and relocate a bear that is being a nuisance, such as when it is hanging around an area that is not an appropriate bear habitat for too long, Churchill said. But in general, relocation doesn’t work effectively, she added. Bears will sometimes try to return to that spot. And because bear habitats are close to where people also recreate and live, bears become comfortable with humans and can become territorial and aggressive. The best thing to do when spotting wildlife, Churchill said, is stop for a minute to take a picture or quick video, then attempt to chase it off — blow an airhorn or bang on pots and pans. Bears must retain a natural and healthy fear of humans for their own safety, Churchill said. “We have a lot of bears, and we have a lot of people in Colorado,” she said. “If we’re going to coexist, we have to have a line between us and the wildlife.”

Jeffco explores discipline for early learners Recent study examines suspensions for students in kindergarten through third grade BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Based on a recent study that examined discipline incidents for kindergarten through third-grade students, Jefferson County Public Schools will be looking at alternative ways to discipline early learners. “From a discipline standpoint, there’s no evidence that exclusionary practices work to change behavior,” said Jen Gallegos, manager of student discipline for Jeffco Schools. “If we teach math and art, we also need to teach behavior. If exclusionary practices don’t teach that, we need to change it.” A report conducted by the Colorado Department of Education revealed that during the 2015-16 school year, Jeffco Public Schools handed out more suspensions to young students than any other Colorado district. The 86,000-student district, Colorado’s second largest, gave nearly 700 out-of-school suspensions to kindergarten through second-grade stu-

dents in 2015-16, an average of four every school day. Neighboring Denver Public Schools, the state’s largest district at 91,000 students, handed out 500 suspensions in those grade levels during the same period. And Douglas County, the state’s third largest district, gave out just 77. Based on the data, Jeffco Superintendent Jason Glass instructed staff to research early learning discipline further, something that hasn’t been done in Jeffco before. That study, released on Aug. 24, found that in the 2015-16 school year, 1,401 discipline incidents occurred involving 717 students in kindergarten through third grade, a discipline rate of 3 percent of the population in those grade levels. Those incidents

increase from kindergarten through third grade and almost all incidents were resolved with in-school suspension (31 percent) or out-of-school suspension (69 percent.) Three incidents resulted in student expulsion and two resulted in a police referral. Disparity in certain populations Of the 95 elementary schools included in the study, 84 were neighborhood schools, two were option schools and nine were charter schools. The data concluded that boys were overrepresented with 86 percent of discipline incidents coming from them. The gender discrepancy is not unique to Jeffco or to early learners, according to Dr. Heather MacGil-

livary, director of assessment and research for Jeffco Schools. “We see more boys having discipline incidents nationally across the country,” MacGillivary said. “We also see similar portions in the upper grades.” Other groups that were found to be overrepresented district-wide were students eligible for free and reduced lunch, accounting for more than twothirds of students with discipline incidents; and students with individualized education plans, accounting for 30 percent. This, MacGillivary said, also aligns with national research, although the research dedicated to early learners is sparse. “There’s a lot of claims and propositions being made across the country as to why this is,” MacGillivary said. “It’s likely a combination of stress — kids in poverty have a lot of stressors.” Gallegos also pointed out that students in the special education population often carry high frustration levels and can be more challenged than the average kid. The primary disability for students with discipline incidents was serious emotional disabilities. While students with disabilities are considered overrepresented based on the school population, 70 SEE DISCIPLINE, P12

the growing population of seniors who will be needing our services in the years to come. We already have a great reputation in the community, and we want to make sure we build on that reputation in a smart way. What have you been focusing on so far? During my first several weeks on the job, I have been looking at the management systems that support the services that the Seniors’ Resource Center is delivering, and assessing what we will need to do in the future to ensure that those systems are creating a solid foundation under our programs — not only for today, but for future growth in our services to meet the future demands of our growing population of seniors. How will your past roles in the nonprofit sector help? I have led organizations that offer an array of services to various populations, including services focused on women and children. The Seniors’ Resource Center is the first organization I have worked for that works almost exclusively with seniors and their caregivers. That said, the similarities across all of those organizations include needing to continue to be strategic about planning for the future, while providing high quality services to the current individuals and families, and making efficient use of the resources with which we have been entrusted. What are some challenges the Seniors’ Resource Center faces? The Denver metro area has one of the fastest-growing populations of seniors in the country, due to the Baby Boomers who are now reaching retirement age. And, people are living longer. The greatest challenge facing the Seniors’ Resource Center is the fact that the senior population in our community is expected to double in the coming years, and we need to gear up to be able to serve an even greater number of people than we are currently able to serve. This will challenge us to raise more money and increase our community partnerships so that we can continue to expand our programs and outreach into the community.

Even before she had graduated high school, Monica Roers knew she wanted to work in the nonprofit sector. “At 17, I had that as a vision,” Roers said. “I realized there would be opportunities across the U.S.” Roers, now 50, is taking over the role as president and CEO of the Seniors’ Resource Center following John Zabawa’s retirement. She started on July 11. Roers earned a master’s degree in public and private management and business administration from Yale in 1993. She was born and raised in Minnesota, but her career has taken her all over the country. She brings more than 20 years of nonprofit leadership experience to the Seniors’ Resource Center. To name a few of her past roles, Roers served as vice president for United Way in New Orleans, CEO for the YWCA of Bergen County in New Jersey, division director of community support services for the Adams County Department of Human Services and, most recently, executive director of Family Star Montessori in Denver. Roers was attracted to the nonprofit sector because the organizations make a difference in people’s lives, she said. “I enjoy seeing the results of the work that we do,” Roers said. “I have a real passion for making a difference.” At the Seniors’ Resource Center, Roers so far has spent a lot of time in meetings and getting to know everyone. The center employs roughly 280 people and has more than 100 active volunteers — and that is in addition to all the people who receive the services. “It’s amazing how many people are connected with the Seniors’ Resource Center,” Roers said. “There’s a lot of great energy.” While attending grad school, Colorado was one of her top choices to move to, Roers said, because of the lifestyle and the beauty of the mountains. She moved to Colorado six years ago and lives in Denver. In her free time, she enjoys reading and is part of a Yale women’s book club. She also likes to take walks in her neighborhood and nearby parks. “I just put my tennis shoes on,” she said, “and go in whatever direction they take me.” What are you most looking forward to as the new president and CEO of the Seniors’ Resource Center? I am looking forward to working together with our staff, board members, volunteers, funders and community partners to strategize about how the Seniors’ Resource Center will build on its existing foundation to serve

Red Rocks unveils state-of-the-art student rec center Opening follows years of outreach and planning BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A good way to measure a project’s success is to check in with those who opposed it in the beginning and see what they think at the end. By that measure, Red Rocks Community College’s newly opened student recreation center is already a smashing success. “So many of the students who’ve told me if they’d had the chance to vote on it, they wouldn’t have spent the money on the rec center have done a total 180,” said Sean Ross, president of the college’s student government. “A healthy student is a happier student, and that will make them more successful in class.” Work on the $10.2 million addition to the college’s main building was finished in June. And the ensuing two months have given the college the opportunity to spread the word about the state-of-the-art

Kirk Fallon, director of Red Rocks Community College’s new student recreation center, explains how some state of the art bicycles work. The bikes have screens with apps like Netflix and Hulu. CLARKE READER facility to faculty and all feespaying students. “We wanted to focus on the student part of this whole thing, so right now we’re only open to our students, including those who study online and in Arvada,” said Kirk Fallon, director of the recreation

center. “A lot of our commuter students just drive here, go to class and leave again, and may not even come to this side of the building, so we want people to know it’s here for them.” The rec center’s roots go back to 2012, when the school

finished the Students Health Clinic. Interest in a better recreation center started almost immediately, as the area the college had at the time was just 2,000 square feet and only had space for free weights and cardio. For much of 2013 and into

2014, students hosted a variety of workshops, surveys and informational events to elicit input on the project. They determined the best way to pay for the project was a fee increase for all students of about $115 per semester. The idea had to be voted on by the student body, and in May 2015, was approved by a 70 percent margin. The vote had the largest turnout of any ballot issue in the college’s history, Ross said. The fees the students pay will provide the necessary funds for construction, staff and upkeep for the next 30 years. Non-fee paying students (such as online and Arvada students) may opt in and pay the per-semester recreation center fee. “We wanted to eliminate as many barriers as possible for our students,” Fallon said. “Even if they’re hesitant, once they visit, it’s like a switch gets flipped.” The 38,000-square-foot, twostory building was designed by Davis Partnership Architects and built by Pinkard Construction Company.

Students had a lot of say on what would be in the center. The end result is a gym, climbing and bouldering wall, exercise studios, cardio/strength equipment spaces, outdoor fitness deck, meeting rooms, offices and student gathering areas. It will also play host to a seasonal rotation of intramural sports, including volleyball, basketball, ultimate Frisbee and outdoors PingPong. Most of Red Rocks’ physical education classes will be held in the center, and its front desk and some free classes will be taught by students. “I started working here because I want to get in the health and fitness industry,” said Sam Shepherd, a secondyear student at Red Rocks. “This place is incredible, and there’s something for everyone.” Even though the center has only been open for a couple of months, the school sees all manner of potential coming from the building. “Everything is in its infancy,” Fallon said. “There’s no telling how it will grow from here.”

Two last minute challengers filed to run for Jefferson County Board of Education. Three incumbents, board president Ron Mitchell, Susan Harmon and Brad Rupert will seek reelection for their seats, which they acquired in 2015 after the recall of former board majority members Ken Witt, Julie Williams and John Newkirk. With the deadline to file Sept. 1, Erica Shields and Matt Van Gieson turned in petitions just before the 5:30 p.m. cut off. District officials have yet to certify the petitions as valid, so the field is not officially set. Unofficially, current board member Harmon, representing the foothills in District 2, faces opposition from Shields, while board member Rupert, representing Arvada’s District 1, is being challenged by Van Gieson. Mitchell will face no competition for his seat. No campaign information from either Shields or Van Gieson was immediately available.

Service could have less food to go around Meals on Wheels faces federal funding cuts, uncertain future BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

enver resident Lometa Gaskin, 99, stands behind her screen door, waiting for Meals on Wheels volunteer Wayne Chitwood. He asks how she’s doing as he comes up the sidewalk. “If I was doing any better you’d think it was a frame-up,” Gaskin replies. The paint in her living room is peeling in patches, but the house is clean. Gaskin says she’d rather die than move into assisted living, and she relies on Meals on Wheels for a daily serving of nutrition — and conversation. “I enjoy meeting the people more than I enjoy the food,” she says. Asked about how funding cuts to the program, included in President Trump’s proposed 2018 budget, would affect her, she changes the subject. “Let’s not go there,” she says. The $4.1 trillion budget made headlines in March, proposing funding cuts to a number of social programs. One such reduction is a 16.2 percent cut to the Department of Health and Human Services, which reduces revenues the Denver Regional Council of Governments could distribute to Volunteers of America and its Meals on Wheels program. Congress has until the end of September to pass a federal budget, and as the deadline approaches, Dale Elliott grows anxious. “We save lives every day,” says Elliott, division director of Aging and Nutrition Services for VOA. Drivers give some clients their only social contact of the day, as well as a nutritious meal. Three or four times a year, Elliott says, they find seniors who’ve fallen and need medical help. The budget cuts would take $307,300 from Meals on Wheels’ Denver branch, eliminating services to 620 seniors in the metro area, according to Elliott.

Lometa Gaskin, 99, holds onto her lunch after receiving her daily Meals on Wheels delivery on Aug. 11. Gaskin lives alone in Denver and says talking with the delivery drivers is as important to her as the food. PHOTOS BY TOM SKELLEY

Funds for “congregate meals,” offered to mobile seniors in 30 centers in the seven counties Elliott’s office covers, would lose $192,900 and serve 705 fewer seniors. Funding reductions would also take more than $30,000 from programs the VOA offers to provide safety-based home repairs and inhome exercise programs for seniors. But Republican businessman and former state legislator Victor Mitchell,

The 20 x 22 deck is a perfect place to relax and enjoy the setting. New shingles are currently being installed.

Wayne Chitwood, who’s been delivering food with Meals on Wheels for about 8 years, brings Lometa Gaskin her daily serving of lunch and conversation on Aug. 11. Chitwood says most clients don’t have any social interaction beyond the daily deliveries. “They’re always very appreciative,” he says. “That’s why I’m doing it.” a Castle Rock resident and candidate for governor who has been delivering meals on Fridays for about a year, believes other funding mechanisms exist for the organization to make ends meet. One solution could be “to change their model to the extent that they raise more money from private-sector dollars,” Mitchell says. “I think it’s a fantastic program and it does a lot of great things. I just believe there could be a great deal more done with funding the program with the private sector.” Meals on Wheels receives 87 percent of its funding from government sources, 9 percent from private donations and 4 percent from client contributions, Elliott says. “It’s not like we don’t do that,” he says. “The reality is we just don’t receive sufficient response.” Herb Wager, 68, began visiting the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center after his wife died in May, and enjoys the fellowship as much as the food. He’s an unaffiliated voter and leans Republican, but like Elliott, he disagrees that

private corporations or citizens can fill the gaps federal cuts would create. “It won’t get done,” the Castle Rock resident says. “It would be nice in an ideal situation, but it’s not an ideal world.” On a sunny Tuesday in August, Wager talks over baked chicken with Buzz Bowers, also of Castle Rock. Bowers began bringing his wife to the center five years ago when her Parkinson’s disease confined her to a wheelchair. It was a way for his wife to socialize as her condition worsened, and the friends they made there were a comfort for Bowers when she died last year. He says the fact that the government would consider cutting programs for seniors is evidence of “troubled times” in the United States, and he warns that decreasing funding won’t decrease the demand. “I think it’s something that needs to be increased, not decreased,” Bowers, 84, said. “Seniors are living longer, and there’s going to be a lot more of us.”

‘Over the moon’ about triceratops find in Thornton Experts say fossils are more than 66 million years old STAFF REPORT

The discovery of 66 million-year-old fossils in Thornton Aug. 25 simultaneously triggered national headlines while it shut down work on a new substation of Thornton police and fire departments. “It’s looking like we have one of the more complete triceratops skeletons ever found in the metro area,” said Joe Sertich, curator of dinosaurs for the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. Construction crews working on Thornton’s new Public Safety substation at 132nd Avenue and Quebec Street uncovered the fossil on Aug. 25, notifying experts at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. Museum experts were on the scene by Aug. 28 and are leading the excavation. Since then the story has been picked up by National

Joe Sertich, curator of dinosaurs at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, and volunteers work on a triceratops horn, part of a larger fossil found Aug. 25 at the site on 132nd Avenue and Quebec Street in Thornton, which was being excavated for construction of Thornton’s new public safety center. COURTESY PHOTO Geographic’s website, the Washington Post and USA Today. “My heart was racing,” Sertich said. “I realized it was a pretty important dinosaur find.” Sertich says it appears to be a triceratops skeleton and skull.

“This is probably one of only three skulls of triceratops found along the Front Range area,” Sertich said. According to Sertich, most fossil finds along the Front Range are from the Ice Age, just several thousand years old. Older fossils, like the

Thornton find, are rare. “This dinosaur has been laying here for at least 66 million years,” says Sertich. “I’m over the moon right now about this dinosaur fossil.” Construction crews have stopped work in the area of the fossil while museum

scientists work to stabilize the area and the fossil and any other bones that might be found. As of Aug. 31, crews said they had found a second triceratops horn at the site, as well as a portion of the frill (the shield of bones behind the head), the beak at the front of the lower jaw, ribs and vertebrae. Work will continue over the next several days to expose all the bones. Plaster jackets are being placed around the bones to protect the bones while they are extracted from the ground. The bones will be transported to the museum, then removed from the jackets and prepared to become part of the museum’s permanent collections. “I really have to credit the professionals working at the site that discovered the fossils,” Sertich said. “They knew they hit something important and started making calls right away. It’s an unusual circumstance that everyone will benefit from for years to come since we’re able to preserve these bones on behalf of the people of Thornton and Colorado.”

percent of students with discipline incidents had no disability recorded. “I think a big message is, while we see disproportionality it was spread across many schools,” MacGillivary said. “When you’re suspending one kid on an IEP or in poverty in many schools across the district, that’s when we see the disproportionality.” The most recorded incident type was detrimental behavior, which Gallegos described as “something that causes significant disruption to the classroom setting or is a safety issue.” There was no ethnic disparity in the K-3 report, with 58.3 percent of students identifying as white. Searching for alternatives Moving into this year, the district will be looking at alternatives to suspension.

Winners were named in the Fierce Innovation Award report in five distinct categories designed to highlight products and services that have the potential to make the greatest impact on savings, healthcare delivery and patient engagement. RidgeFest returns Sept. 9 RidgeFest will be held in Wheat Ridge from 3 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 9 in the heart of the Ridge at 38 District. RidgeFest is a free, family-friendly event highlighting the agricultural heritage and homemade appeal of Ridge at 38 and the entire Wheat Ridge community. The event will feature four bluegrass bands, a classic car show, cottage food contests (in bread, fruit pies, jams and jellies), an international heritage festival, vendors, food trucks, local beer and wine, lots of childrens’ activities and more. Quickdraw Homegrown Music will kick off the bluegrass concerts at 3 p.m. Thunder and Rain is the second act at 4:15 p.m., and Heartstring Hunters will follow at 5:30 p.m. This year’s headliner, Jeff Scroggins & Colorado, will take the stage at 7 p.m. New this year is a chalk art festival, headed up by Wheat Ridge resident, Olivia McLeod. McLeod has a passion for chalk art and recently won the People’s Choice award at the 2017 Denver Chalk Art Festival. She and her family will head up the festival with the support of the Wheat Ridge Cultural Commission. The artists will work all morning and afternoon to create unique works of art. From 3 to 6 p.m., RidgeFest attendees can watch as artists finish their pieces. After 6 p.m., attendees can view the finished work. Those interested in showing off their classic car or their winning recipe can learn more about competing at Ridgeat38.com. Sponsorship and volunteer opportunities are also still available. Contact CDoran@WeAreLocalworks.org for more information. For a full schedule of RidgeFest events, visit Ridgeat38.com. The standardized suspension checklist will give school administrators a pause in the process to look at alternatives to suspensions, Gallegos said. The checklist was rolled out for the 2017-18 school year. Alternative examples include restorative practices such as social and emotional learning interventions and positive behavior interventions and supports. “That’s been a really good intervention tool to build culture and repair the harm and damage caused,” said Gallegos, adding that the goal is to keep students from missing instruction. Data from the 2016-17 school year will be available this fall and MacGillivary said Jeffco will once again examine the district. In the forward letter of the study, Glass wrote, “We will monitor our rates of K-3 suspensions and expulsions for this coming school year to determine if our solutions have had the desired impact of reducing these relatively harsh discipline practices for young students.”

Creating a movement of ‘good neighbors’ Hundreds to volunteer during Be A Tool’s Day of Service this September BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

People love to help out their community. And the closer to home that help is, “the more of an impact it seems to have,” Arvada resident Todd Gurney said. That’s where Be a Tool comes into the picture. The annual Day of Service run by Neighborhood Rehab Project is expected to draw 800 volunteers to do home fix-ups and repairs in their communities this month. The Day of Service takes place Sept. 9 in Golden, Englewood and Idaho Springs and Sept. 16 in Arvada. Be a Tool founder Dan Thoemke started Be A Tool Day of Service seven years ago in Golden. Last year, Arvada and Englewood joined, followed this year by Idaho Springs. “It’s super-exciting to see the model and idea spread into the hands of very gifted, passionate people in other cities in the metro area,” Thoemke said. “We love to share the vision and model, and then step back and watch it go.” In addition to the one day of service in September, Golden and Arvada also have been conducting one-day projects, or mini days of service, throughout the year. Projects for Be A Tool Day of Service range from yard cleanup and painting to replacement of stairs or handrails. The mini Day of Service projects are generally larger, such as replacing roofs, decks, water heaters and furnaces, Thoemke said. A mini Day of Service in Arvada, for instance, took on a request from Arvada-based nonprofit Colorado Homeless Families, which had nine deck projects, Gurney said. The first two were completed during Arvada’s inaugural Day of Service on Sept. 10 last year, then two more on a mini Day of Service in December, and the remaining five during a mini day in May. “Arvada is a giving community,” Gurney said. “The people care about their neighbors. The businesses care. It’s a big city with small-town love.” In Golden, the mini days happen on a need-based occurrence, but generally projects take place just about every month, Thoemke said.

A young lady works on a handrail project during last year’s Be A Tool’s Day of Service. This year, the Day of Service takes place takes place on Sept. 9 in Golden, Englewood and Idaho Springs; and Sept. 16 in Arvada. At least 800 people are expected to volunteer this year throughout the four cities. People love to meet the homeowners and the families they’re helping. “Those connections with the homeowner are a big deal,” he said. Such as with Kay Krattli, a 75-yearold longtime Golden resident. In January 2016, Krattli had a stroke, which left her with limited mobility — she has to use a walker to get around. Her hands also don’t work well anymore, she said. “I really can’t do much,” Krattli said. “Especially none of the outside stuff.” Be A Tool has sent groups of volunteers to do yardwork and replace her walkway. “They work really hard, and they’ve been very helpful,” Krattli said. “I’m overcome with gratitude. It’s truly a blessing.” Volunteers also replaced her leaking roof last year during the Day of Service when her insurance wouldn’t cover the cost, she said. “Neighbors are the true first responders when things break, need repaired or a disaster happens,” Thoemke said. “This is what we are calling communities back to — neighbors helping neighbors.” Talks about bringing Be A Tool’s Day of Service to other cities metro-wide are already happening, Thoemke said. “We will continue to expand

into cities who invite us to help,” Thoemke said. “We are creating a movement that we feel, at its purest level, helps people in cities all over be good neighbors.”

Two people become human tools during last year’s Be A Tool’s Day of Service event. The annual Day of Service started seven years ago in Golden, and has now expanded to Englewood, Idaho Springs and Arvada.

VOICES Changing direction instead of moving forward can take real strength

HITTING HOME

Michael Alcorn

ometimes, I really enjoy looking at things a little differently. Y’know, finding the weird evidence of something that doesn’t really jibe with the way everybody else looks at things. Let me give you an example. For a stretch of about 10 years, Tiger Woods was the best golfer on the planet. And there were plenty of examples of his greatness — brilliant shots, clever little trick shots, clutch performances. And victories … lots of victories. But there was one thing he did, at one point, that I have, literally, never seen anybody else do. There was this one round he was playing, and, as was always the case, the media was swarming around him. Now, normally

golf media knows what they’re doing, and respects the etiquette of the game, so they contribute to the silence right before a shot. But, this one time, in the middle of Tiger’s backswing, somebody snapped a photo. Of course, baseball players have to swing at a ball travelling 95 mph. with 40,000 screaming fans and countless cameras bulbs flashing, and they don’t bat an eye at the whole thing. But, click one camera at a golfer, and … But I digress. At any rate, every other time I’ve seen something like that, the golfer completes his or her swing, watches the ball fly off line, and peevishly stares out at the crowd, encouraging the marshals to remove the offending

paparazzo. But not Tiger. In mid swing, as he’s coiled to unleash his golf club at 120 m.p.h., he completely arrests the movement of the club and steps away from the ball. And then stares peevishly into the crowd, encouraging the marshals to remove the offending paparazzo. Sometimes, it takes vastly more strength and energy to completely halt your momentum and start all over again, than it does to try to control and contain what is already headed off the rails. Yeah, that’s a metaphor. SEE ALCORN, P15

Hooray for Joe Last week it was announced that President Trump had pardoned Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Arizona, who had been arrested and charged and sentenced in federal court for the crime of upholding America’s immigration laws! He is 85 and has dedicated his life to law enforcement and has been outstanding at his job — a household name with many Americans. If there is a majority who don’t like the immigration law, the law should be changed, but we shouldn’t stop enforcing the law of the land simply because we disagree with it. That is anarchy. We are a country governed by the Rule of Law. Sheriff Joe is the one who had the lowest recidivisms rate for prisoners in Arizona! Why? Because he actually made prison life less than comfortable, and the prisoners he was in charge of knew if they broke the law again they might get Sheriff Joe again and it wouldn’t be very much fun at all — again. He was the one that had jail outside. It’s hot in Arizona and they complained terribly of the heat, to which protestation he would point out that although it was 113 degrees in Arizona, that our troops who were in Iraq were in 120-degree weather with full body armament. He is the one that made the men wear pink underwear. And he gave them pink towels, too. They got bolo-

gna sandwiches to eat. I understand Paul Ryan and both Arizona Senators, John McCain and Jeff Flake (Republicans), and, of course, all the Democrat Party have condemned the President. Thank Goodness for President Trump, who, like Sheriff Joe, does the right thing under fire. Carole Jeffery, Golden

Cool with coal plant shutdown Moms all around Colorado received great news recently: Xcel Energy plans to retire two coalfired power plants in Pueblo. Pollution creates and exacerbates many health problems to which children are particularly vulnerable. Too many kids suffer from asthma (1 in 12 in Colorado), low birth weight and other health issues. Our children’s health is the number one issue for parents so I am glad to see Xcel is looking for ways to provide cleaner energy. As an added bonus, the prices for electricity could go down. Balancing the family budget is challenging with all the expenses of raising kids. I hope the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) looks favorably on Xcel’s proposal. Less expensive energy that’s healthier for our kids and better for their futures is a mom-approved proposal! Jen Clanahan, Denver

And if I had any credentials at all, I would be standing outside nof the International Space Station program and pounding on the door. So, I’m thinking Planetary Protection Officer might be just the ticket. What will I be doing? For one, as noted in the job description, I’ll work with our space missions to make sure that any samples or miscellaneous materials, such as planetary surfaces that might cling to our crafts, are not bringing harmful elements, or even organic matter, back to Earth. Setting theology aside for a moment, it’s breathtaking to consider that there might be life elsewhere in the universe, life of any kind botanical, marine, animal or of a kind we currently can’t even fathom. And since the advent of film, the movies have portrayed the (usually dire) results of human life colliding with these extraterrestrials. Hence, planetary protection for Earth.

dearth of responsibilities: don’t waste that! I understand, in fact I even support, the idea that a college degree is a valuable thing — it’s the key to the kingdom! But, to continue pursuing the thing for no reason other than that you feel like it’s what you’re supposed to be doing is like trying to finish a swing that you’ve lost control over. You might hit the ball … but it will probably go horribly off line. It is incredibly hard to accept the reality that something you are doing is not working; it’s even harder to screech to a halt and change direction; and that presupposes that you possess the humility to be able to recognize it in the first place. But that’s what the great ones do. You want a great life? Exercise that kind of control over your “shots.”

All this intrigues me: How do we protect—and protect against—what we don’t know exists? How do we know what we are bringing back and what we are leaving behind?

Check. Minimize pollutants in the air and waterways? Check. Respect forestation, wildlife and marine habitats, and sacred and archeological sites? Check. To do my job properly, I’ll need the cooperation of, well, the entire planet. Given that my employer, NASA, is an American government entity, I like to hope that the U.S. will lead the way in long-term preservation and protection strategies. But with the current rollback of environmental regulations to score short-term points, my job as Planetary Protection Officer may be more to protect Earth from her current residents than from any interplanetary invaders.

LIFE The state of

the Bible

in 2017

Report finds older Americans, women most likely to be regular readers BY JESSICA GIBBS | JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

ill Herr starts each day by reading the Bible. It’s a habit she’s kept for several years with her husband before they go to work, and one she says keeps her grounded. “Just to read about God’s love for people and the direction for individuals’ lives,” she said, “ and direction for my own life, too.” The Castle Rock woman has been a regular churchgoer since she was 15 years old but said within the past two decades, reading the Bible has grown her faith even more. The devotions, she said, are a critical part of her daily life.

At 61, Herr is more likely to remain devoted to regularly reading the Bible than those from other generations — specifically millennials and members of Generation X. And as a woman, she’s more likely to regularly read the Bible than her male peers. That’s according to the 2017 State of the Bible report commissioned by the American Bible Society and conducted by California-based Barna Group. Researchers issued phone interviews with approximately 1,000 adult Americans and took online surveys from another 1,028 adults between Jan. 20 and Feb. 2. They found that about half of respondents are “Bible users,” meaning they read or listen to the Bible on their own at least three or four times a year. That figure has remained constant since the annual survey began in 2011. But they also found that nearly one-third of adults said they never read, listen to or pray with the Bible — a 5 percent increase from 2016. Among the sample group, results showed women,

older Americans and people living in the South are most likely to be Bible users. The data wasn’t surprising, said Reg Cox of the Lakewood Faith Coalition, an organization that creates partnerships between the faith-based community and local governments, schools, neighborhoods, nonprofits and businesses. “The survey just seems to line up with some of the things that myself and Christian leaders across the metro (area) have experienced,” he said. “I think that there’s some shifts or decreases in biblical knowledge.” A lower rate of Bible readership among young people is a trend seen across the metro area. “That’s what we’ve experienced in our church. Millennials are not just going to automatically give any kind of credence to faith. They’re open to sort of all ideas,” Cox said. In response, churches focus on providing service projects or missions for members to be involved in, Cox said, stating social justice issues are one thing that repeat-

WHAT IS THE BIBLE? The Bible is the collection of sacred scriptures in the Christian religion, comprising the Old and New Testaments. The scripture is important to those following Christianity, as most believe it to be the actual or inspired word of God, free of any error, through which God spells out his plan and purpose for the world. Those within the Christian religion are encouraged to regularly read and study the Bible. Sources: Merriam-Webster Dictionary, merriam-webster.com; and the American Bible Society, americanbible.org.

Anne Jefferies says reading the Bible is an important part of her family life, and something she encourages her children to do daily. COURTESY PHOTO edly draw people in, rather than simply reading them a new Bible story each Sunday morning. SEE BIBLE, P17

‘Chorus Line’ gives a glimpse at audition process Classic musical opens Arvada Center’s new season BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Through the plays and musicals they do, actors get the opportunity to go to places as people they wouldn’t otherwise. But for the first show of the 2017-2018 season, the Arvada Center is bringing to life a world all too familiar to its cast — auditioning for a Broadway musical in the classic production, “A Chorus Line.” “I’ve been in these situations myself and seen some of this stuff happen first-hand,” said P. Tucker Worley, who plays Mike in the show. “You see everyone from new, bright-eyed, bushytailed actors to jaded veterans, all of whom who still want the part.” The show runs at the center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., from Sept. 12 to Oct. 1. Performances are 7:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, 1 p.m. on Wednesdays and 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Directed by Rod A. Lansberry, with musical direction by David John Madore, the show takes the audience along with 17 dancers as they audition for a spot in the chorus of a Broadway

Anne Jefferies, who does public affairs work for her Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Lakewood, also said there is a degree of lower readership among her church’s young membership, but many youths are still actively engaged with the Bible. The church offers morning seminary classes before high school-aged

IF YOU GO WHAT: “A Chorus Line” WHERE: Arvada Center 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., Arvada WHEN: Sept. 12-Oct. 1 Tuesday - Saturday: 7:30 p.m. Wednesday: 1 p.m. Saturday and Sunday: 2 p.m. COST: $53-$77 INFORMATION: 720-898-7200 and www. arvadacenter.org

THE HOLIDAY PRODUCTION Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities will celebrate the holidays with the critically acclaimed Broadway musical, “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” The production, directed by Gavin Mayer, opens at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 17, and runs through Dec. 23. Performances are 7:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, 1 p.m. Wednesday, and 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The show has been one of the Arvada Center’s best-selling holiday musicals for many years, was last performed at the center in 2009.

‘People often have this misconception that actors or dancers are just doing a show, but there’s always more to it.’ Rae Leigh Case,

musical. The entire show takes place over the span of a day, and provides windows into the many different characters who are hoping to have their dreams come true. Many, like Connie, played by Rae Leigh Case, are at least loosely based on real people that original creator and director Michael Bennett knew from the scene. “People often have this misconception that actors or dancers are just doing a show, but there’s always more to it,” Case said. “It’s so easy to relate to these characters.” Both Case and Worley are from the Arvada area, and so getting the opportunity to take the main stage at the Arvada Center is a big deal for both. “It’s extra special and really an

honor,” Case said with a laugh. “But there’s an extra bit of pressure because you don’t want to blow it.” As musical director at the Arvada Center for the first time, Madore, who lives and works in New York City, is excited about working in an artistic community as vibrant as the one at the Arvada Center. “I’m astounded at all the arts opportunities going on here, especially the children’s productions,” he said. “There’s something completely different about how a mind works after it is exposed to the creative world.” Madore brings a different experience to the production, as he has also worked on the other side of the audition process — playing music for those performing for casting directors.

“Someone not in the business will still be able to project themselves onto the characters in this show,” he said. “It’s so specific about what people want, and you’ll be able to say, ‘I know this person.’ “ For anyone who loves the stage, dance, or a story about characters doing everything possible for the things they love, “A Chorus Line” fits the bill. “It’s an important story to tell because a lot of people don’t know what this world is like,” Worley said. “This is the story that shows what we do.”

youths leave for school, she said, and attendance remains strong. “So we are reading the Bible and talking about the Bible on a daily basis with those youth, in addition to weekly activities,” she said. “We can’t force any of them to do it, so it is an option, but the majority of our youth participate.” Jefferies and her family study the King James Version of the Bible along with the Book of Mormon as part of their LDS faith. They strive for daily devotionals, lasting 30 minutes to an hour, she said.

“My reading daily supports me in becoming a better person in my home as well as in my community,” she said. Jefferies predicted the generation gap in Bible readership is a result of millennials’ busy lives, she said, traveling for work and raising children. Her theory was backed up by the State of the Bible report, which found more than 50 percent of the respondents who saw a decrease in their Bible readership last year named busy lives as the top reason. But Jefferies also believes many millennial LDS members are raising their

children to read the Bible daily, true to the church’s continual encouragement to do so, she said. “They know that children follow what their parents do,” she said. Herr suspected that those, regardless of age, who don’t read the Bible “don’t understand all of the life that it contains.” Still, she isn’t worried about the future of the holy book. “I believe there’s a revival to God and his word coming,” she said, “and that it will just be something that will sweep across all the generations.”

How to create a closer connection in your relationship

et’s say you were interested in deepening the closeness in your relationship. How would you go about doing that? It’s a good bet that whatever you did would SOUND involve 1) talking ADVICE about personal feelings, dreams, fears, concerns and emotions, and 2) being more affectionate. Here is an exercise in creating or deepening the connection with each other. Take turns asking and answering each Neil Rosenthal of these questions, regarding: • The way you offer love. What you do that expresses love to me. • The way I would prefer to be loved, or prefer that you express love to me. • The way we communicate as a couple. Is there something we have a particularly hard time communicating about? What would help make such communication easier, safer or less volatile? • When we are in a major disagreement, what could we do that would assist us in resolving the issue while also preventing us from escalating and getting angry or ill-tempered with each other? • How would you like me to tell you I’m unhappy about something — without you getting defensive? • What hurts, angers or upsets you that you would like me to modify or correct? • How affectionate am I? How affectionate would you like for me to be? • Do you think I am overindulging in substances or activities that are unwise or unhealthy? • I would like you to apologize for… • Are there any money habits you would like for me to change? How would you like financial disagreements to be settled between us?

• What could I do that would strengthen the trust between us? • If one of us feels that the relationship is taking a back seat to work, children, family, hobbies, activities or entertainment, how would you like for us to address and resolve that issue? • Of what importance is exercise and fitness, food choices, personal hygiene and appearance to you? • How should it be handled if one of us becomes unhappy with the other person’s choices or habits? • What could I do that would make this a more romantic relationship for you? How frequently would you like this to happen? If I forget to do it before it becomes habit, what might we do to remind me? • What could I do that would make this a more satisfying sexual relationship for you? • Realistically speaking, what goals would you like for us to shoot for during the next 5 years? • What are you fearful or anxious about? What would you like me to do that would help? • What activities would you like us to do more of together? • Are there any subjects or issues you think we have been avoiding? • Of what priority are travel and taking vacations? Where do you wish for us to travel to? • What are some of the things you’re most proud of ? How about the things you’re most proud of this year? • What’s fun to you? How often would you like us to be doing fun things together? • Is there anything I could do (or quit doing) that would assist you in feeling closer and more connected? Neil Rosenthal is a licensed marriage and family therapist in Westminster and Boulder. He is the author of the bestselling book Love, Sex, and Staying Warm: Creating a Vital Relationship.

What a difference a rivalry makes Intensity ramps up when certain teams play each other

CHSAA commissioner aims to bring new perspective to job

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Rivalry football games are contests that get circled on the calendar, get players and students pumped up and get coaches to put a little extra into game planning. Pueblo Central versus Pueblo Centennial is the oldest rivalry football game in Colorado. It was first played in 1892 and now is known as the Bell Game, with the winner gaining possession of an old train bell that was donated as a trophy in 1950. There are several intense Colorado rivalries involving area teams and most are tied to geographic proximity or games within the same school district. Changing conference alignments and schools switching classes have purged some rivalries and forced teams to move games against rivals to early in the season — including Week 1, which is the case with several games this season. “The good news is we are still playing these rivalry games,” said Derek Chaney, Douglas County School District athlethic director. “We sort of flip-flopped the schedule and what used to be the non-league games are our league games. The games lose a little bit because league titles are not on the line. “The flip side is we are playing these rival games in the good weather. The student bodies, I don’t think they care if it is a league or non-league game.” Crowds in Colorado are not as large as some other states, such as Florida and Texas, but the atten:tion surrounding rivalry games is considerable. Bleachers fill fast at 3,500-seat Shea Stadium in Highlands Ranch for the ThunderRidge-Mountain Vista game. The parking lot fills up hours before the game with tailgating, and then many people line up outside the stadium behind the north end zone to watch the game. “We sell out that game every year,” ThunderRidge Athletic Director Sean Patterson said. “It’s a hyped-up game, the kids are hyped up for it. It’s a great atmosphere.” The Castle View-Douglas County crosstown rivalry is another can’tmiss contest as the Castle Rock teams compete in the Battle of the Rock affair. This year, the game was in the opening week on Sept. 1. “There is no better atmosphere than a rivalry game,” Douglas County coach Gene Hill said. “There is nothing better than seeing the stands full. Players are more focused. The hard part is making sure the

Players and fans hold the Brookridge Trophy high after Arapahoe won the 2015 football game with Heritage. The winner of the rivalry game gets to keep the trophy until the next Arapahoe-Heritage game decides which school becomes keeper of the milk can for a year. FILE PHOTO BY TOM MUNDS players still play within themselves. It absolutely stinks that this game is played in Week 1. How much fun would it be to see these two teams play Week 10 for a league title or a playoff spot?” Castle View senior Heath Helms said everyone on the team circles the date of the Douglas County game. “The biggest part of the rivalry is everyone used to play together, then when high school starts they spilt and go to different schools,” he said. “There is a lot of trash talking. It’s still friendly. Everyone is still friends after the game but when we are on the field, it’s a fight.” Legend and Ponderosa are two Parker schools that play in nonleague and the lower parking lot fills at EchoPark Automotive Stadium early with tailgaters. Ponderosa is a 4A school but still plays the Titans. The third Parker public high school, Chaparral, isn’t on the Mustangs’ schedule. “The Legend game is a great experience for both teams’ players and the Parker community,” Ponderosa coach Jaron Cohen said. “The atmosphere on game day is fantastic and the players know each other through playing youth ball.” In some games, there is hardware on the line. Heritage, a Littleton school, and Arapahoe, located a few miles away in west Centennial, play each season for the Brookridge Trophy. It is a milk can that is a tribute to the Brookridge dairy farm that used to occupy the area where Littleton Public Schools Stadium now stands. Legacy has two big rival games each year, one against Broomfield and the other against Adams 12 district school Horizon. “Horizon is a district school and

you always want to be the best in the district,” Legacy Athletic Director Brendon Feddema said. “The Broomfield game every year draws a lot of people, but as soon as the game is over the players are good friends. It is the Best of Broomfield game.” Northglenn and Thornton are longtime rivals that played for the 89th time on Sept. 1 in what is called the I-25 Bowl. “This game is one that both sides play up for and it’s usually a great game,” Northglenn Athletic Director Matt Oelhert said. “Each of our communities has multiple generations who have gone to either Northglenn or Thornton.” There have been several metroarea rivalries that have developed because of the strength of the teams. While these schools aren’t in the same city or the same league, year after year, it seems, they are squaring off in the playoffs, often with a state championship on the line. Valor Christian, seven-time Colorado state champions, has developed rivalries with Cherry Creek and Pomona mainly because of competitive games and the fact the teams are typically battling it out for Class 5A state titles. Valor holds a 4-2 edge in the series, but the Bruins ended the Eagles’ 28game in-state winning streak in 2014, and later that season Creek won the state championship with a 25-24 win over Valor Christian. Pomona has lost the past two title games to Valor but the Panthers have three wins over the Eagles during the regular season. “In the past four years, we’ve played Pomona eight times and Creek four times,” said Valor coach Rod Sherman. “They have been good games.”

honda Blanford-Green is a former track star who has been displaying her speed in her new job as Colorado High School Activities Association commissioner. Blanford-Green was hired in March and his been proactive OVERTIME in addressing issues and initiating new concepts that could foil unanticipated issues. Sometimes the oldschool ways have to be tweaked, and BlanfordGreen banks on her experience. “What I bring to the Jim Benton table is a different perspective and I’ve seen it differently,” she said. Blanford-Green, a 1981 Aurora Central graduate, set several Colorado track and field records that stood for years. She won 18 conference championships as a collegiate standout at Nebraska, where she was an 11-time track All-American and competed in several international events. She worked 16 years for the CHSAA as an assistant/associate commissioner, was the executive director of the Nebraska School Activities Association for three seasons and was an assistant executive director the Louisiana High School Athletic Association from 2015 until returning to Colorado. The CHSAA held a media day Aug. 30 with a round-table discussion, and a much-needed format for interviews after state championship games was revealed. “Our vision and mission was building relationships with our media,” said Blanford-Green. “We wanted a roundtable discussion in an informal matter and not at a state championship, where sometimes those conversations don’t go very well.” Fast start Chaparral senior Adrienne Visintine started the softball season with a bang and was named the MaxPreps/NFCA (National Fastpitch Coaches Association) National High School Player of the Week for games played Aug. 21-27. Visintine, an outfielder who has committed to play at Coastal Carolina, had a slugging percentage of 3.000 with three home runs and a double in five at-bats and started the season with a 1.000 batting average. She drove in seven runs, scored nine times and reached base safely in 11 plate appearances. Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media.

Learning about the Broncos and the bees Hives of honeybees humming at Dove Valley training facility

‘BEE’ EDUCATED Resources: • The Colorado State Beekeepers Association coloradobeekeepers.org

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Beekeeping clubs:

There’s been a lot of talk about the upcoming Denver Broncos season, and the names Paxton Lynch, Trevor Siemian and John Elway have all been in the news. But the real buzz at the Broncos’ Dove Valley training facility in unincorporated Arapahoe County is the work of Joe Komperda. On a bright August morning, hours before the team will take the field for a pre-season game at Sports Authority Field, Komperda gracefully manipulates trays covered with honey, wax and thousands of crawling bees, seemingly oblivious to a cloud of the disgruntled insects zipping about his body. “My first year I got stung seven times, and the next year I got stung seven times in the first week, so I stopped counting,” he said with a smile. “It just happens sometimes.” The 60-year-old Parker resident took up beekeeping four years ago, and in 2015 was introduced to Brooks Dodson, Dove Valley’s director of turf and grounds, by a contact in the Cottonwood District after rescuing and moving several swarms near Dove Valley. “He said the chef might be able to use the honey at the training table, and I thought `This guy has a chef ?’ ” Komperda said. “Then I noticed he’s wearing blue pants with orange piping down the sides — and it hit me.” Last year Komperda installed the first two hives, painted blue and orange by his wife and beekeeping partner Debbie. This year he’s keeping four hives, with 50,000 to 100,000 bees, behind the fieldhouse. For the team, it’s a ready source of sweetener at the training table. For Komperda, it’s an opportunity to get the word out about his beekeeping and swarm rescue services, and a chance to make an impact on the declining bee population.

IF YOU SPY A SWARM Swarms occur when a hive grows too large and half of the bees within split oﬀ to start another hive. If you spot a swarm of bees, it is critical to the health of the local bee population — and your own — to leave it alone and not attempt to douse it with water or insecticides.

Joe Komperda checks the staus of his hive behind the Broncos’ training facility fieldhouse as guard bees try to find a way through his protective garb. Komperda estimates between 50,000 and 100,000 bees occupy the four hives at Dove Valley. TOM SKELLEY “We lose about 1 million hives a year, which is a real concern,” he said. “If two out of every three bites of food come from bees, and they go away, what are we going to do?” About 60 percent of food products grown in the United States rely on pollination, Komperda said, and bee populations have been dropping worldwide from a combination of factors, including pesticide use, climate change and varroa mites, a parasite blamed for the deaths of hundreds

Swarm hotline: 1-844-SPY-BEES or 1-844779-2337 “the zen of beekeeping.” “When you come out here and open that hive, you start looking at that and just marvel at Mother Nature,” he said. “This is just something that is so amazing and you can’t see it anywhere else but in a beehive.”

of thousands of colonies around the world. Anyone can take small steps to make a big difference for their pollinating neighbors, Komperda noted, such as using more bee-friendly plants and fewer pesticides in their gardens. “There’s all sorts of things you can do to help,” he said. “You don’t need to be a beekeeper.” Though anyone who does decide to put on a netted hood and gloves will get to experience what Komperda calls

Anyone who ﬁnds a swarm is urged not to attempt to spray the swarm with water or insecticides, as either could be harmful to local bee population.

High school sports offer opportunity to experience sense of community

ailgates. Pep rallies. Friday night lights. The new school year is here! And that’s exciting news for studentathletes and high school sports fans alike. Research shows that being a student-athlete is about a lot more than fun and games. It teaches important life lessons, too. In fact, high school athletes not only have higher grade-point averages and fewer school absences than nonathletes, they also develop the kind of work habits and self-discipline skills that help them become more responsible and productive community members. Attending high school sporting events teaches important life lessons, too. Among them, it teaches that we can live in different communities, come from different backgrounds, faiths and cultures, cheer for different teams, and still have a common bond. That’s why attending the activities hosted by your high school this fall is so important. It’s not only an opportunity to cheer for your hometown team, it is also an opportunity to celebrate our commonality. And that’s something our country needs right now. The bond we share is mutually supporting the teenagers in our respective communities. We applaud their persistence, tenacity, preparation and hard work, regardless of the color of the

GUEST COLUMN Bob Gardner and Rhonda Blanford-Green

uniform they wear. We acknowledge that educationbased, high school sports are enhancing their lives, and ours, in ways that few other activities could. And we agree that, regardless of what side of the field we sit on, attending a high school sporting event is an uplifting, enriching, family-friendly experience for all of us. Many of the high schools in our state lie at the heart of the communities they serve. They not only are educating our next generation of leaders, they also are a place where we congregate, where people from every corner of town and all walks of life come together as one. And at no time is this unity more evident than during a high school athletic event. This is the beginning of a new school year. Opportunities abound in the classroom and outside it. Let’s make the most of them by attending as many athletic events at the high school in our community as possible. Turn on the lights, and let the games begin! Bob Gardner is executive director of the National Federation of State High School Associations and Rhonda Blanford-Green is commissioner of the Colorado High School Activities Association.

Wheat Ridge teen singing a new tune Self-taught musician gifted a new guitar by police officer BY GLENN WALLACE GWALLACE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

he teen pretended to play the guitar, hands moving up and down the frets as his right hand strummed the air. The strings were missing, and two wooden screws showed where he had previously jury-rigged the instrument, to try to keep it working. “It immediately made me sad when he pulled it out,” said Wheat Ridge Crime Prevention Officer John Bowman. But Bowman said he could see the focus and joy that the autistic 14-year-old had as he strummed the empty air. Bowman met the boy, Broderick McPherson, at the request of the teen’s mother Jessica Shymkiw in late August. She had wanted to get her son entered into the department’s Life Trak program, to help find people with severe dementia or autism who may have wandered off. Bowman, who had been

Broderick McPherson and Wheat Ridge Police Officer John Bowman talk about guitars and chords. Bowman says the two first met a week earlier, and quickly bonded over their shared hobby. GLENN WALLACE learning guitar for the past couple years, saw McPherson’s guitar and asked the teen to show off what he’d learned “I started calling out some more difficult chords, and he knew them all,” Bowman recalls. The officer asked the mother if she had the means to repair or replace the guitar. She said she didn’t. “I just knew I had to do something.”

So on Aug. 30 the officer returned to McPherson’s home with a surprise — a new guitar, strings included, and a case to carry it. The gift had been paid for by the Wheat Ridge Optimists, and sold at a discount by the Guitar Center in Westminster. “We try to help children in need,” said John Lobus with the Optimists. He said the organization is always on the lookout for chances like the

guitar, to be a friend to the community’s youth. When Bowman arrived at the home, McPherson first had a surprise. He had scrounged up two guitar strings, and salvaged a third by tying two broken ones together. With those three strings, McPherson cocked his head to the side, and began playing out the melody to “Hotel California” for his friend.

After the song was over, Bowman fetched the new guitar and handed it to McPherson. “What do you think?” the offer asked, but McPherson was already focused on tuning the new instrument. “That’s your instrument, baby,” said Shymkiw, but he didn’t seem to hear, too engrossed in figuring out the fingerings for a full five strings. Shymkiw said that McPherson asked for a guitar maybe four years ago, but had really taken to practicing in the last few months, teaching himself chords and songs through YouTube. “He’s just been working with whatever he has,” she said. Communication has been a challenge for her son, according to Shymkiw. He was nonverbal for much of his life, and only in the last year had really begun speaking in full sentences. She said music had become a new way for him to express himself. After minutes of McPherson fiddling with the guitar his mother repeats the message, that the guitar is a gift to him. He looked up, surprised. “This is my guitar!” McPherson said with wonder.
